Relaxing location
The lovely lady I spoke to when I checked in was very welcoming, warm and friendly. The accomodation was comfortable, clean and had the amenities that we needed. The location is amazing and I slept so well with the sound of the waves lapping on the beach. Would definitely recommend.

Pleasant and comfortable motel
Nicely equipped room. Had everything we needed. Friendly check-in. Parking directly outside the room was good for unloading and loading the car.
