"The view from Apartment #8 was amazing! The location was great as well, being directly across from the beach and walkway, and a short stroll into the center of town. Even being so close to the street, the living area remained quiet due to the enclosed balcony. Chris and Gina are fantastic hosts, and are improving/maintaining this property to a high standard. Highly recommended!"

"We stayed 2 nights in a Superior Deluxe Studio over the weekend. The room was clean, comfortable, well maintained and large for a studio. The kitchenette had all the essentials and had the weather been better we would have enjoyed the deck area. The motel is a 5 min walk to the centre of town which made getting around easy. Relaxed and friendly service from Fred added to our experience. We were very happy with our choice, especially for the price paid."
