Ocean View Hotel

Ocean View Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was my first stay. I just got back and already booked another trip. The room, and entire hotel was CLEAN, the staff was always extremely kind and willing to help. I stayed with just my daughter and I, and felt safe, even in the midst of all the interesting things happening all around. Views and location 10/10. Based on this short experience, I already can’t wait to come back."
