Diamond in the rough

Judy took excellent care of us. Not huge only 9 units, but we walked in to a super clean place. The beach litterly 100 yards from the hotel on the beach side. Great for couples abd even families. Next time we are going to rent more rooms. Good places to eat right close by. We were lucky the trolley was free. But a daily charge of 5 dollars to ride all day is great. It was right out front. Daily towels and beach towels provided and all the beach toys were there free of charge for use. Thank you Judy for all the great assistance during our stay. Hope that the new grand baby stays healthy and happy.

Enjoyed

We enjoyed our 2-week stay in the motel. The room is clean, small but there is everything you need: a refrigerator, stove, dishes. The public beach (clean and quiet) is a few steps away. There are nice and inexpensive restaurants next door. The area is very quiet. I worried about the noise from the road and restaurants, but no, I have not heard anything. The owner is very flexible and responsive.

Great place to stay, great location!

We really enjoyed our stay! The beach is really just a quick walk through the municipal parking lot. Much less crowded and touristy than the beaches to the north and south. Very quiet laid back place to stay. Small local (not obnoxious big franchise) bars and restuarants a very short walk away (a great one right next door). There is a 7-11 across the street if needed as well. The room was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed, fridge, microwave, stove, etc. They provided towels, beach umbrellas, chairs, etc. I have never been to this area before but I would not stay anywhere else. It was perfect!

Small and Friendly Motel -close to a great beach, pubs, and restaurants.

Judy (owner) makes you very welcome and comfortable. Courtyard is a wonderful sun trap and great meeting place for all residents and the resident Night Heron. Beds are comfy. Beach chairs and umbrellas were supplied....much appreciated. Great stay.

Affordable and close to a nice quiet beach!

Stayed mid April for our baby moon (trip before welcoming new baby) Judy is great, so sweet and welcoming. We stayed a full week and since a cancellation was made on the 1 bedroom apt she upgraded us! Room was very clean. Nice kitchen area with everything we needed to cook, bedroom with king size bed and nice bathroom, nice dining/living area plenty of room for a family. Motel is only a few hundred feet from beach access in a nice secure area down a back road with very little traffic. Motel has beach accessories such as toys, chairs, floats, umbrellas which was nice since we didn’t pack any of those things! This is the perfect area if you don’t want to be in the hustle and bustle of the super busy touristy areas but still close enough to enjoy the crowds at your discretion. Great restaurant right next door (Broke “N” Bored) and candy kitchen (ice cream!) across the street. Just 10 minutes down the road to Johns pass boardwalk area! Be sure to have a grouper dinner at Dock side Dave’s, best meal we had all week! Thank you again for a great stay Judy!

A Great Place to Stay

Our hostess Judy upgraded us from an efficiency to a one bedroom which was very kind. The rooms were clean and spacious and there was a king bed. The furniture was nice. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook. Judy was there in case we needed anything and was very responsive to whatever we needed. We were a short walk to the beach and had stores and restaurants near by. Judy let us check out a little later as our flight was late afternoon which we really appreciated. We enjoyed our time here and would recommend it. Thanks, Judy. Connie R.

Happy with our stay!

Motel efficiency for the two of us, with a very helpful and fun owner! Small yes, but in 2 minutes your toes are in the sand and in 3 minutes you're working on your tan! Great restaurant right next door and another right across the street. Who could ask for more.....

This place is great for a simple no frills beach get away.

Judy the owner is great. She is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are simple but clean and well kept. The location is amazing for the price. Just a short walk across the parking lot to the beach. Be sure to take advantage of the beach chairs and other gear provided for free ( great for us coming from out of state) They are around the back so you just have to ask. My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Thanks Judy.
