It's a great space for kids. The pool is right at your door. Big enough for 3. Went to beach to see the sunset, it was a 2 min drive. You can even walk. Will come back for sure.

We only stayed one night but the rooms were clean and comfortable. Check in was easy with a simple email and a door code. This is right near the gulf intercostal. It is a quiet little property and we would stay here again. Thank you!

Property was cute and room was clean. Only issue I had was that the a/c was cool but not cold like how I like it. Staff was very nice. Location and price was great. Would stay again.

See you again soon, Sun Idkand Motel
What a charming motel! The courtyard pool is surrounded by comfy couches. The room comes with a kitchenette so stop by Publix on the way to stock the mini fridge. Don’t forget cream cheese because there is a toaster! We had the room next to the office so we did not hear road sounds but bring a white noise machine, ear buds or a partner with a sleep apnea machine! No ice machine and the mini fridge was no help at making ice so be aware. No movie channels, but don’t we have them on our phones? Again, earbuds are the BEST! I can’t wait to bring friends to this motel! Thank you Sun Island. Btw the bin to put pool towels in is missing.
