    Right on the ocean! The oceanfront gazebo was really nice. Breakfast was good…sausage or egg/cheese biscuits, waffles, fruit, muffins, etc. The bed was good with nice pillows. Room was clean and updated and had no carpet!

    Great location. Seems like it was updated fairly recently. I recommend it. One thing to mention is that Check is 5 pm and check out is 11a. The 5pm check out is really late.
