The views are amazing, with a fantastic clifftop location right on the ocean. The staff are really friendly and the hotel facilities are well-kept. We loved the outdoor seating area and the lovely touches like breakfast, cookies, and wine/cheese.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The ocean view from my room was breathtaking, making my stay truly memorable. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating, providing excellent service throughout my visit. The hotel grounds were clean and well-maintained. The room itself was spotless, and the cozy fireplace provided not only a romantic atmosphere but also ample heat. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to various attractions was a major advantage, with the beach, pier, and boardwalk all within walking distance.
