It's an old train that sits on a hill overlooking the beach. The location is fantastic. Although the rooms are small because it's a train, the view and open windows to the beach overshadowed the small space. A small continental breakfast is included in the rate with a small charge for eggs. It can be eaten on picnic tables on a deck overlooking the beach which is lovely. They also serve dinner, nice when we arrived late. There is one shared bathroom per train car, but then again, it's an old train, so we didn't mind. Parking is available right next to the train cars. Sam at the front desk was great - kind and very helpful. The value for the price was very good. Would stay again!

listening to beautiful breeze to sleep nice location by the beach friendly staff good breakfast

A train with a very comfortable bed! We very much enjoyed the breakfast and a dinner we had at the on-site restaurant. Great view of the Ocean and sound of the waves to sleep to. The staff were all awesome and highly attentive.

you can hear the ocean waves (they were very mellow) so there is such a relaxing vibe. the train features are intact so you really can sed how everything was in the old day. great view, handy location

Right on the beach! Beautiful view! Restuarant good and very reasonable!

The location is perfect for getaway and it was very clean and staff always ready to assist. I enjoyed Bingo night
