A great experience from start to finish! We loved hanging out in the common areas and the charm of the Breakers. The beach was easily accessible and the complimentary chairs were nice. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. We would definitely go back!

Beautiful Inn with the perfect location! The staff was on the younger side and not particularly attentive (I.e. helpful). There was easy maintenance items overlooked such as replacing the commode insides to prevent water from running (parts looked ancient inside and an easy fix). Also, the bathroom was minuscule, as one might expect in this age of property, but the room was clean, comfortable and you couldn’t beat the view. All in all we’d stay again, thanks!

This hotel was amazing. You can’t beat the view and location. Right on the beach. Rooms 10, 1 and 2 have the best views. It’s just an inn, not a hotel, and there isn’t much by way of bar / restaurant nearby during the first half of the week, so plan accordingly. But Tuesday nights there is a free raw bar (!!) and every night a happy hour from 4-6. Just no dinner options or lunch. Coffee and muffins every morning. The best part is they give you a beach wagon with everything you’d need for a day on the sand. I’ll be coming back again!
