This is a lovely little property with well appointed suites, a great view of the sea and a lovely little sea view balconey. Nice gardens and a sea view patio with loungers and tables. There is a natural swimming pool in front of the motel that fills at high tide and is great for swimming. Would love to return.

I like the beach front location of this property. There is no AC in the rooms, which makes it inconvenient during hot summer days. The fan was not working initially and they had to replace it. Carpet was very dirty. Paint peeling off. No amenities like EV charging, or restaurant and food service etc, especially for a property at this price.

It was perfect! The motel is clean, and very comfortable. The owners have made it a home away from home. They are super hosts. You can go to the beach right from the beautiful deck and garden in the back. It is so quiet and friendly. Easy access to multiple trails for hiking, and golf if you would prefer. The sunsets are breath taking from your own balcony or sitting on the large deck, which they provide, lawn chairs, and tables. Great place to relax and enjoy your holiday.

We love it here and have stayed several years in a row. The views can't be beat and the large patio area on the beach is amazing. The only downside this time was some loud neighbors and the bedding could use an update.

The likes... Room was airy, bright, cheerful and had a nice view (#106 unit on lower floor). Mostly quite a clean unit. Very nice location with a well manicured garden and outside amenities. The dislikes... Some of the kitchen utensils and dishes were clearly dirty. Only a used sponge was provided. Given the unknown history of a used sponge, this was not used. A new sponge was requested and provided. Suggest to property manager that all dishes/utensils should be very clean and a new sponge should be provided. The TV has zero premium channels provided...at $233 (Canadian) per night I feel that premium channels should be provided. Quite a few of the TV channels had a "lock" on them with no possibility of watching because they required a PIN number. I alerted management but they had no idea about this PIN or how to unlock these channels. Shampoo and soap packets are laughable and a better approach to soap and shampoo hygiene needs to be devised by management. The super miniature bar of soap provided in each packet is like trying to wash yourself with a potato chip. The quantity of shampoo in a packet is way too small. Parking slot for #106 was a serious challenge due to extremely narrow entry and exit.
