    Great location. Right across from the beach and pier. Well kept resort grounds and facilities, and very charming. A bit older feeling but we liked that about it. Just around the corner from some GREAT restaurants and bars.

    Enjoyed that the resort was next to the ocean and next to a secluded beach. Enjoyed that the resort fee included electric bike rental and gym/ exercise classes. Loved that the room had a patio that we could sit out on and had a sitting area inside the room as well. Most of the staff we encountered were kind and accommodating.

    Great location. The hotel is located just next to the wharf and about 15 min away from the center by walking. Restaurants are nearby. Our room was in another complex, close to the main building of the resort as we asked for a quiet room. Beautiful and comfy room.

    The rooms are upgraded and clean. I love the flooring as it is luxury vinyl and not carpet. The location is good and the pool looked inviting though we ran out of time and did not use it. The tv has lots of channels and is oddly and exceptionally clear (high definition). I would stay at this Inn again for its value.
