Features
Direct beach access, outdoor pool, barbecue area, business center, and free Wi-Fi
The property sits right on the beach, so guests have direct access to the white sandy stretch and the hotel also provides free beach chairs. A small outdoor pool overlooks the ocean and is surrounded by a brick sun deck and white lounge chairs, however, due to its size, the pool is better for soaking than swimming. There's also a barbecue area with grills and picnic tables. There is a business center with a computer and printer in the lobby. Wi-Fi is free, as is parking, but only one parking space per room is available.
