This property is the best Motel I've ever stayed at. We Loved the proximity to Moonlight Beach, the free beach equipment available to borrow, the staff and the amazing ocean view. The staff was very attentive to the smallest problem that came up with awesome customer service. We've already booked our next stay to visit again.

Cold nights and only sheets on the bed with a thin blanket. Couldn’t get the heat to turn on. Window lock was taped shut so window couldn’t be opened in case of an emergency.
