Excellent hotel with family vibes. The pool was great, staff was great at check-in and out. Great beach access and royal farms + dunkin in walking distance. Also the pool has pool noodles that everyone can use, its so fun. + the two queen bed room had a full kitchen with range, oven, microwave, fridge, pots/pans/silverware. Would be great for a long term stay

Our stay at Shangri-La was a wonderful experience and a throwback to the old days of traveling. While this motel is old, it is perfectly preserved, very clean and refreshed in appearance, and completely charming. The pool was perfect and had plenty of chairs and umbrellas available. I would definitely recommend any travelers to avoid the big, cold modern hotels and come to Shangri-La where the staff is friendly and you’ll greeted warmly. And don’t forget to say ‘hi’ to the night check-in host, Larry.

Cute "roadside" motel. Had a small kitchenette, outside seating and a nice pool. Rooms could use some updating, but it was clean and the staff was very nice.

Great service

I will by no means call this a five star resort, however the staffs attentiveness and personality was excellent and for the price it was above expectations. I would suggest this for a 4 member family on a budget or a couple just looking for a place to lay their heads.
