We had the most incredible time at this cozy beach spot! The place has direct beach access, making it so easy to enjoy the sand and waves. The location offers the perfect view to catch both sunrise and sunset – truly breathtaking. The amenities were top-notch, with a fantastic gas grill for cooking, and everything we needed was readily available. A huge shoutout to Christina, who was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Her kindness and attentiveness made our stay so much more enjoyable, and she truly made the experience 10x better. This wasn’t our first time staying here, and it definitely won’t be the last. I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else – this place is a gem! 5 stars all around!
This motel is going through a name change and they just updated all of their appliances. We were assigned to a room which had terrible saging in the floor. Husband requested another room and we were quickly reassigned to a better one.
The picnic area is top notch. Gotta see it to believe it. The boardwalk, proximity to the beach and sunrise/sunsets are amazing, quick and breathtaking.
If I had gotten angry with the condition of the floor and left that night, I would have never known the beauty all around me. So glad we stayed and thank you for being so hospitable. Just a gut feeling, once they work out all of the little repairs - this will easily be a very expensive room on the beach. Can't say for certain, but it sure seems that way -especially with all the sweat and tears going into the place.
Thank you.

This was a basic hotel, but I was at the beach. The room was semi upgraded, and there was not any heat. The air conditioning was on very high, and I figured out how to turn it off, which made the room much warmer. I could hear the dogs in the room next door. For being at the beach, this hotel was adequate and very reasonable.

Great experience. Thank you
Convenient. Great location. Beach access. Clean. Just what I needed for a long weekend getaway. There was a lot of commotion from an arguing couple in an adjoining room for several hours but that’s no fault of the host or a reflection of a typical stay. I plan to return! Thanks “Beacon!”
This is a charming motel with so many lovely features. I grill, gas fire pit, beach umbrellas, swings, sooooo cute.
You can walk to to eat and beach is just a quick walk down the path. The beach is in a quiet area.
Love this place
When we opened the door to the room, we were blasted with a strong smell of mold and mildew. The room had not been cleaned from the last guest. We went down to the lobby and received another room that had been cleaned, but still had the awful mildew smell. Luckily we only stayed one night because I can’t imagine dealing with that smell any longer. The bed was very springy and uncomfortable. The sheets were extremely thin. The shower was very old and dirty feeling.
Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. You deserve better than this.
Pricy for what it is. Rooms are clean, but painfully basic. Two beds- that’s it. Very small bathroom with no outlet. One small mirror that was coming unlaminated- very old. Insufficient linens for a two night stay. Rickety walk way over the dunes to the beach, which is a hike. There has been an attempt to update the property, but it’s a work in progress and that progress seems to have bypassed our room.
Rat poop on the bath towel. no daily service. Tiny room for $$$. Nòt even a chair or a vanity. Could have stayed at large hotel with a pool and pets for same money. Wasn’t cool and nostalgic like I thought. Plus's the staff helpful and friendly. Beach access and beach very nice. Enough parking for the rooms.
Prices are a little high but the location is great, there is a path straight to the beach. Room #6 was renovated, 2 ACs, very clean and comfortable.
There was no staff for check in or check out but we did not need it during our 1 night stay.
The room spelled, the bathroom was dirty, old fixtures, dirty washcloth. Used dry wall screws to install mirrors. The windows in the back of the room had no curtains, they were frosted but let the morning sun shine through. Cheap pillows and bed linens. Just not worth the money we spent.
