Great pool on property. Path to beach easy to walk due to sand mat covering path. Beautiful white sandy beach. Room was very clean and adequate size for us. Bathroom small but again fine for us. Coffee available every morning in check-in area. Across the street from property is a restaurant. Definitely a plus!
Led lights would have improved the lighting. We would have liked a microwave. Smoking is allowed outside each room door. Not a problem during the day but at night when in the unit, we could smell smoke from inside our room. Would have liked a smoking area away from unit door.

Nice, old style motel, right on the beach! Check in was easy and the clerk was super nice. The room was clean, fairly quiet, except for some noisy neighbors, and comfortable. Good selection of TV channels, although we watched very little TV, and a decent restaurant just across the road.
The whole complex is definitely showing its age, although it has been kept up well over the years. If you're looking for things to do, you'll have to drive a bit to everything. There are refrigerators in the rooms, but a microwave would be nice.

This is an old school motel style, built in the 1970's but very nicely renovated with new carpet, wallpaper/paint, furniture, tub/shower/faucets, efficiency kitchen. Very nostalgic for us older folks. Motel and pool are right on the beach - super location. I didn't see any other property with closer access. Parking is right outside your room. Very convenient to restaurants, parks, historic center. There is a restaurant right across street you can walk to. Very comfy bed and nice bath towels. The kitchen had its own sink, microwave, mini fridge with freezer, and was well stocked with a set of dishes for four, paper towels, dish soap, dish towels, etc. The kitchen had a coffee maker with coffee, but honestly, the free coffee served in the office was so good that I never made my own. Pool was clean, plenty of lounge chairs, and had both deep and shallow end. All rooms have two chairs outside the door with a little table. It wasn't fancy, but met all my needs. I liked how small it was, as I didn't have a hike to get to any part of property. Only about 40 rooms. Staff was pleasant and accommodating. Thanks for a great stay - I will be back!
The only thing I could complain about was that the pillows/pillow cases smelled of mildew. I am sure they were clean; its a tough problem to solve in a very humid environment. Maybe wash in bleach or similar disinfectant?

Definitely a hidden gem and beach front. I liked it was close enough to the historical district but not in the middle of all the hussel bussel. Complimentary beach towel for beach or pool. Walking distance to a few eating spots and chairs outside of pool area to just enjoy the beach/day.
Room 23/ The beds are a bit dated gard to get comfortable with a few lumps. The pillows need replaced (I brought my own) and need some sort of way to keep smells from a jointed door (we smelled NOT cigarette smoke co ibg from neighbor). Overall an okay stay. We'll be back.

It's location is superb. The beach is gorgeous and quiet, the pool is clean and very nice. The rooms are updated although the hotel itself is a bit older. The bar/restaurant across the street is a real plus.
The air conditioner was rather loud and there was a towel under it, I'm guessing to catch condensation. Beds were kind of uncomfortable. The adirondack chairs at the end of the building facing the ocean were a nice touch, but the ashtrays there were overflowing and very stinky.

Right on beach, 2nd floor great views, friendly staff, comfortable, very nice area
Did not realize people could smoke right outside their rooms. Unfortunately, the couple next door sat outside ( with one of their chairs almost at our door) smoking the whole time. We were unable to sit out there at all due to the smoking, but the up side was that the door seemed to have a good seal and we could not smell the smoke in our room. It was a beautiful view on 2nd floor if we had been able to sit out there though.

This was an amazing escape. I loved the beach, the impeccably clean rooms, the perfect pool water, and the charming restaurant across the street. The staff was helpful and friendly.
Okay, if I have to mention something, it's that they need to start providing regular cream for the coffee. Haha. This was one of the best places I have been to in a long time. You will not regret your stay."

Authentic. It’s what I think a beach motel should be. Built on the location of the old Blue Marlin cabins my family loved in the 50s and 60s, Beachside is right on the sea coast. A down to Earth experience.
At check in be sure to point out the beach access boardwalk on the other side of your fence. I feel so stupid for not noticing it as we left. 😕

This is literally as close as you could possibly be to the beach—just over the dune on a well-maintained walkway. There is a well-maintained small pool with ocean views and small patio area adjacent to it, both perfectly positioned for watching the sunrise or sunset or just enjoying the sounds of the waves. The staff—from cleaners to front desk attendants—could not be lovelier.
The beds in my room were a bit harder than I prefer, and the toilet/tub area a bit cramped, but everything was up-to-date and clean. I was traveling with my dog and sometimes pet-friendly rooms are a bit rundown but this was as nice as the others, from what I could tell.

We loved our stay here! the staff were so nice and welcoming! The room was updated and clean. Very spacious and the beds were very comfortable. There was coffee and granola bars etc in the check in for a quick bite before we walked down the private access to the beach. Our last day they also gave us later check out of 1130 so we could shower ourselves and the kids after coming off the beach that morning and heading home. We will be back!
The pool was closed for maintenance. The pool was one reason I picked this property for my kids. Suggest update the website to reflect maintenance. Otherwise we were very happy with our stay!
