This was our 3rd or 4th stay here but 1st time in a studio room. It was pet-friendly and on the ground floor. We didn't bring our dogs but loved that the room smelled fresh and clean and had extra supplies for the 4-legged friends. Staff is awesome and during the summer months, the path to the beach is fun to walk on.
Deer were all over outside the doors of our room.

The room was clean & kitchenette was stocked with utensils and cookware! This place saved me from a very sketchy stay I had booked somewhere down the street. It’s as nice as it appears! Only downside is the hot tub isn’t super warm, more like lukewarm. But I still enjoyed using it! 10/10 recommend.

Cleanest room I've ever stayed at. I've stayed at many 5 star hotels around the world and while they dazzle, they don't always offer substance as minor amenities such as flatware, kettles, and sometimes even a coffee machine. This room on the other hand truly felt close to home as everything was spotless and well taken care of. While it doesn't have fancy views of the city, motorized curtains, or bidets it delivers in amenities and cleanliness.
