I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right on the beach with stunning views and within walking distance of charming restaurants. The rooms were cozy and had a unique hand-painted ceiling in the turret, although a bit small. The service was exceptional, with a warm and welcoming hospitality that made me feel right at home. The dining options were good, but I wish there were more hot meal choices. Overall, a wonderful experience!

What a delightful stay! The room was small but had a lovely hand-painted ceiling on the inner cone of the turret. I enjoyed relaxing on the porch's rocking chairs by the beautiful fireplace, and the room had a king bed, a twin bed, and a trundle. The service was exceptional, thanks to the warm hospitality of Renee and Harry. The location was ideal, close to the beach and many events that weekend. The dining experience was pleasant, although I wish there were more hot options. Overall, a charming hotel with friendly service and great ambiance.
