We stayed in a 2nd floor deluxe 2-bedroom cottage and the view was fantastic! We sat for hours watching the whale spouts. The beds were comfortable and the living room was cozy. We had a couple of issues with the old windows and the old stove elements and the staff was super responsive and took care of things quickly and it was worth it for the charming retro experience. This is the type of beach accommodation which both of our families stayed at when we were children and it brought back wonderful memories. The unit was quiet, too - we had a family with kids next door and we barely heard them.

I love the view from our room of the ocean! Since we are older and can no longer walk on the beach, it is extremely important for us to have a room that we can sit and watch the ocean from and open the window and listen to the waves!

We went into the reservations with such as the reviews are mixed. In addition to be reasonably priced for the coast we went ahead. Staff was great polite and quick.. Although I was surprised they did not text or call us about the Tsunami warning :O. Our first view was of the kitchen area very old appliances and refer was turned off. after pouring out the water in the freezer tray we were happy to see it start cooling! we laid paper towels over the rusty freezer coils and tried to clean off the side of refer and top... ya, no. We were happy to see the rest of the rooms were much better! The view is spectacular bar few on the coast, and we were happy enough with the stay just wish the kitchen and few dated things were in better shape.

There are some minor repairs that could be made in our room. However, we had a very comfortable stay here and the view from the room was magnificent. It was nice to have a well-stocked kitchen to use. Front office staff were very pleasant and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we're ever in the area.

The property was nice and had a beautiful view of the ocean. The stove/oven was outdated but they provided a lot of dishes and utensils. The beach was a walkable distance from the property, a little hike up a hill on the way back but not too bad. Would stay again.
