We had an amazing time and hope to go back someday. The view from the balcony was perfect and we lucked out with great weather and a calm ocean. My only critique would be that the pool did not look to be the cleanest. We didn’t end up using it because the ocean was so perfect.

Everything went fine during our 3 day stay. Resteraunt closed due to remodeling was the only disappointment, reason for the 4 stars on property condition and facilities. Im sure it will be great when it opens with the dining by the beach. Coutyard and pool area nice and well lit. Only about 25 yds to water out of back of hotel.

Our stay, although short …was comfortable and a great location! Views were wonderful, very short walk to the beach, the beach chairs were an added convenience! Although the property is dated, the restaurant was under construction, all in all I would stay again!

Fantastic View!
This was our first visit to the Atlantic Beach area. We specifically wanted an ocean front room with a balcony. All the rooms at this hotel are ocean front. The staff was friendly and accommodating. My only frustration was the shower. The water pressure and water temperature were both low.
