Greeted by very helpful and friendly staff. Loved the free access to bikes, paddle boards, surf boards and other beach equip. Location was another plus, 1/2 block to bay and 1.5 blocks, or less to beach. Sailing and other water sport rentals, 1/2 block away. Definitely coming back.

We enjoyed our stay at the boardwalk. Great location that is an easy walk to beach, restaurants and shops. Room was spacious and comfortable. Parking is limited so I recommend booking a parking spot asap to secure one especially if you have a large car.

Very cute, well stocked, clean & comfortable room. Quiet location with very convenient walk to the beach, bay, and shops. The limited hours for staff and lobby was challenging a couple times when there were questions or needs but there was prompt response via text/QR code. The gear and locker rental around the corner was very helpful as well. Would definitely stay again!
