“This property is so cute and clean! All the rooms have amazing views of the ocean, and the sunset was unbelievable! The staff was all so kind and helpful. Coffee, tea, and popcorn in the lobby, and a great breakfast in the morning. Super dog friendly and close to all the restaurants and shops. Absolutely will stay here again! It was perfect.”

“Excellent value and prime location. Very friendly and courteous staff. Best pet-friendly policy and commitment we have experienced. Will return again this fall when the weather will likely be warmer. Very comfortable rooms and a wonderful view.”

“Great place to stay!! House #117 situated across the street from the main building is actually better than it looks in the pictures online. The living room furniture has been replaced and it has a 60s retro beachy vibe. Lots of space for three people. Kitchen is very well stocked.”

“Loved the location to the coast but also to everything downtown like restaurants and shops, but also in a quieter part of the busy main beach. Bed was really comfortable and of course the VIEW and sound of the ocean all night was amazing Very pet friendly.”
