By the Sea
This is an older property that has been kept up fairly well. It is right on the ocean, but the beach is not accessible from the hotel. Non the less, falling asleep to ocean waves is most relaxing.

Such an excellent location, which is it's very most attractive feature. Everything else is basic and small rooms, but the ocean makes all the difference.

A Room with a Spectacular View
A unique place right on the Ocean with spectacular views from all rooms over the pool and into the waves. A beach you can walk on during low tide. The rooms themselves are meh. Not great decor, old, squeaky bed, low grade uncomfortable pillows. The Shoals restaurant is very good.

The property is dated and barely clean. I can’t recommend it to my friends and family.
