This place has become an annual tradition for us. Though the resort itself is somewhat dated, It’s exceptionally clean and offers wonderful amenities. Nothing beats opening your slider door to the beautiful ocean not to mention the fire place and free upon request wood is absolutely amazing. The price and location cannot be beat.
The beach just below the cliffs at your doorstep.
