Great stay for a large family group

Our group had 3 rooms for 5 nights (Sun-Fri). We really enjoyed our stay! The hotel staff are all wonderful! They were always friendly and ready to help. The kids loved the complimentary apples and bananas available in the lobby, the adults appreciated the complimentary coffee. The restaurant was also great, we loved the happy hour! Great location with a great view of the ocean and an easy path to the beach. Pool is nice -- i only wished they were able to keep it stocked with towels.

I stayed with my daughter and granddaughter. We liked the ocean view and my granddaughter especially liked the beautiful pool. It was spacious and clean. They frequently checked the water quality. I didn’t like that it was a very noisy area with lots of people partying and loud military jets flying by very often. Not the hotel’s fault but something to keep in mind. The room and bathroom were clean- except for the carpet. The air conditioner worked but was leaking so the carpet was wet. I notified the staff but it was not fixed during our two day stay. We had fun but I did expect the hotel to be in better shape

This is an older hotel that definitely shows it's age but it was a clean and safe place to stay on the oceanfront. The staff was friendly and we had everything we needed. Definitely a win for the price peak summer and being right on the ocean.
