It is an older property which has been renovated. It was a cost effective place to stop so we could do the Whale Watch thing

This motel is perfectly located and close to everything. As well, right across the street from the beach and the magnificent views. Our hostess was very friendly and helpful. We were able to stash our bags with them upon checkout as our train was in the late afternoon. We were also taken to the train station as it would have been quite the walk with suitcases. They went above and beyond! I highly recommend this motel.

It is an amazing little motel. Really nice owner. Sea view from unit 9 and 10 was excellent. Unit are specious. Easy walking distance to all the shops/restaurants but far enough not to be too busy. Highly recommended. For sure we will be back. Great air conditioning and great water pressure in shower. Have washing machine just out of the unit in a room for you to use
