Our room was smaller than I thought it would be. The location was gorgeous & the continental breakfast was okay.

Kelly United States of America

The continental breakfast was very satisfactory… The location is great on the ocean -Great view for sunrise pictures… Great area for walking

Susan United States of America

Cozy. Directly across the street from the water. A beach in either direction at about 2 blocks. The street is not busy duty the day as everyone keeps the speed down to about 15 mph. At night, there are virtually no cars. Hot showers.

Robert United States of America

The breakfast, the location and the staff. They recommended a great restaurant for dinner and we were happy we were able to wake up and see the sunrise on the east coast.

Margaruite United States of America

I loved the location and the veiw. I liked the fact that it close restaurants and shops and other points that were easily accessible.

Robert United States of America

The breakfast was lovely. The STAFF were truly marvelous: friendly, full of information, and kind.

Janice United States of America

This was our 6th year staying at the beach house inn. As always, we have enjoyed our stay. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are comfortable, it's very close to the center of town and your right on the water. You can either take the bikes out or just go for a walk in either direction. This place is our yearly relaxing getaway.

Anna United States of America

We didn’t eat breakfast at the Inn because they seem to only reheat food prepared elsewhere. That didn’t ruin the overall experience for us but others might find that an issue.

Diana United States of America

The breakfast was fine. Everything you need to get the day started

William United States of America

breakfast was good for what we needed, good selection, unlimited amount available, good coffee location was great, not right in the hussle and bussle, calm and relaxing, good parking out back
