“Great spot near Shark Tooth haven”

Nice quiet neighborhood with an amazing beach. The public beach is nearby yet not overly crowded. The sand was great and lots of small shark teeth were found every walk took on the beach. The bungalow was great altho the bathroom was small as was the coffee pot, the proximity to the beach was awesome. Very relaxing area.

“Adequate in paradise”

I believe the manager's name was Sharon. She was great!! Upon arrival, we had a serious concern about the room and she fixed it, without hesitation. The location is phenomenal.

I believe the manager's name was Sharon. She was great!! Upon arrival, we had a serious concern about the room and she fixed it, without hesitation. The location is phenomenal. It is absolutely wonderful to walk out of your room, take a few steps and plant yourself on the beach. While there were signs of reinvestment after the hurricanes of 2024, there were also signs of NOT investing. For example, the sofa bed in our first room, on the intracoastal side, was old and in poor shape (as well as not properly cleaned). However, the sofa bed on the Beach side was excell, clearly newer and very comfortable. We stayed Saturday through Monday. On Saturday, we felt well-attended to. Staff was very present ant we enjoyed several positive interactions. Sunday and Monday were less so, but we rather enjoyed the quiet. Overall, an adequate accommodation in an extraordinary location. There are better places nearby, and even for a better price. Acceptable in a pinch, but not our first choice.

“Decent experience - All in All we will come back.”

I have stayed here several times both prior to Covid as well as in 2020. We have always found the "rooms" quaint and as advertised. In 2020 they were taking necessary "precautions" as directed by the CDC, etc.... Which resulted in "contactless check in/out", etc. This weekend we stayed in room 21 a… more

I have stayed here several times both prior to Covid as well as in 2020. We have always found the "rooms" quaint and as advertised. In 2020 they were taking necessary "precautions" as directed by the CDC, etc.... Which resulted in "contactless check in/out", etc. This weekend we stayed in room 21 and were both impressed and disappointed at the same time. First, it is apparent the owners have spent time upgrading the premises and the room we stayed in. On the outside there are new pavers, lights paint, plants, etc. Everything on the grounds and inside the room was very clean. The room was much smaller than I expected however, I realize this is an "old Florida" mom & pop hotel. Things are a little different and you have to embrace it. The bathroom was remodeled and lovely. Hot water was consistent and there are no complaints. The king size bed was adequate mostly due to the wonderful pillows. There is not head board so the pillow fall between the bed and wall. Since there is no one on the premises, I did not call for extra pillows. The television is very large and at the foot of the bed which I really enjoyed. Now my complaints. I will start with my b/f is disabled from a stroke several years ago. We like this place because there are almost no stairs and in the past there were lounge chairs on the beach. This meant we could walk to the beach drag it to where we wanted to be and he could sit and relax. Now there are no lounge chairs which meant we had to go buy them and carry them down. This is a huge deal for him (us). They do have beach chairs for the guests but they are $15 a day and you have to drag them across the street and down the beach. (The chairs are wood and heavy) This was not conveyed to us prior to arriving. Next, my bf is 6'7" tall. Every other room we have had, had larger apartment style refrigerators in them. The fridge in this room was smaller and the door opened the opposite direction (see pictures) It was almost impossible for him to bend down and get things out of the fridge. Coupled with the freezer being too small to hold a bag of ice and no ice maker on site, it made it basically impossible to use the fridge. (You can see the top of the fridge is below the counter top.) We will have no problem staying here again, however we will choose a different room and confirm the in-room pictures actually match where we are staying.
