Rust Cohle once said "This place is like somebody's memory of a town, and the memory is fading." I believe this to perfectly sum up the environment here at oceanfront lodge. Stayed here on a Tuesday night during the middle of a long road trip. Place was quiet and eerie. With your window open, you are only accompanied by the lapping of distant waves. That is genuinely it. I probably saw 3 guests the course of my 14 hour stay. Eerie right? The dated decor didn't help either. However, I attest that this lodge is worth the stop. All of the workers were nice, the mattresses were extremely comfy, and the views were beautiful. All components of a great stay. Truthfully maybe this place doesn't deserve five stars. But I am rooting for this establishment. I hope you all enjoy oceanfront lodge as much as I did. read more

Oceanfront Lodge - Outside - Hotels Near Me - Crescent City, California

We paid 200 for one night. Here was our experience. The room smelled like piss and cleaner and ocean and taco. It was austere, starvingly decorated, the ceiling was the same texture and color as the walls. Aggressive signage, passive aggressive laminated signage installed at the behest of a paranoid, and tasteless owner who clearly had more interest in aggressing the patrons of the hotel than anything else. Overpriced, undercared for, even the jacuzzi was an eyesore. Images attached. Avoid as much as you can help. Truly a hilariously, awful experience. The only upside to renting the most expensive room for a night, was how absolutely comedically awful the room itself was. We got a good laugh from it. The bathroom as well is the cherry on top of the shit sandwich, it too shares the same austere, low-budget pornographic character as the rest of the room. Like the kind of place you wake up after a night out in Juarez, in an ice bath to find a wound and stitches where your kidney once was. read more

Everything except the view. The view was beautiful. Beds were dirty, stained sheets, blood stain and yellow stains on pillow cases. Pool was dirty but they did clean it when we asked. Restaurant food was mediocre. Soup came cold and child's plate a simple turkey sandwich didn't come until the other 5 of us were done. No one checked on us after we got served. read more

I was a little nervous about staying at the Oceanfront Lodge after reading some of th reviews, but overall, it turned out to be a decent experience. The biggest highlight was definitely the location the ocean view is beautiful, and being able to walk right out to the beach was a huge plus. It's a peaceful area and perfect for relaxing. The room itself was clean and comfortable enough for a short stay. It's not a luxury hotel, and some areas of the property could use updating, but for the price and location, it met our basic needs. Staff interactions were polite and helpful . If you're just looking for a place to sleep with great beach access and you're not too picky about the finer details, this place will do just fine. It's not perfect, but it wasn't nearly as bad as some of the reviews made it sound. read more

This place is amazing great staff very friendly and accommodating clean rooms definitely a 10 out of 10

Let's start by setting our expectations and standards to that of Crescent City California (low). The natural beauty of the area is what we are here for. This means the California Redwoods and the ocean. I've never had much luck with outstanding hotels or dining in this area. Camping or a cabin is the way to go. There are a lot of 2 star reviews, and understandably so. The property is looking pretty rough, but the location can't be beat. Why I'm going to give this property a four star review: My wife and I were on a special, healing weekend. The room we occupied was literally feet from the ocean. We were able to open the sliding door of our room onto a small balcony and take in breathtaking views of the ocean and the Battery Light House. We were able to access the beach and also retreat to the safety of our room. The sliding door stayed open most of the time (we were on the second floor). The bed was large and comfortable. You could sit on the bed and look into the expanse of the ocean. The room was clean and spacious. It had a hard flooring and not gross carpet. A tent on the beach would have been miserable. It was pretty windy and cold the first day. This room was super cool for our purposes. We went on a hike at the Grove of the Titans and the connecting Mill Creek Trail the next day. The staff were super friendly. We checked in with them and checked out with them. I don't think complaining about the hotel being worn down would have served us well. Again, this was not our typical chain Marriott experience but it was still a very awesome weekend, that served our purpose very well. read more

One star is generous... The hotel has very limited internet capacity. When we were there, the hotel was mostly full, and so the internet was extremely slow. So slow as to be unusable. We have Verizon cell service, and on the top floor, it was on and off. Their TVs are only streaming (no cable or dish). So, be advised that if you stay here, you will likely have no communication or electronic entertainment. The hotel restaurant looked so dirty we didn't eat there but the brewpub just down the street is very very good. One of the weirdest things is that there was no cold water in the shower & tub. Only hot. So to bathe, we filled up the tub and went to breakfast, and by the time we had returned, the water had cooled down enough to get into the tub. Of course, we complained, but all the staff are teenagers, and their only response is an automatic "I'll tell the manager." read more

This place is absolutely horrible. I have stayed at places all week that were way better than this place and cost half the price. I checked into my room all excited, thinking this was gonna be a great stay for how much it cost. The bed was nice, pleasant firm. Bed was comfortable.... if only there wasn't so much noise so that I could enjoy it. I fought with the remote for the TV for a very long time, till I could figure out how it worked. I then proceeded to go out on the balcony to look at the ocean. That had its own challenges, because the screen door did not want to open and fell off of its track and when I tried to put it back on it, it would not close. So I had to call someone to fix it. After I called, I waited a good fifteen minutes or more and nobody showed up. So I called again, and they acted like I had never called. Finally they sent, who I think might have been a manager. He proceeded to show me how I had to force it while it balanced on a corners, ready to fall off again. He didn't seem to think there was any problem with that. The view was nice. I then decided that I was going to take a shower. The shower curtain is way too short, so it keeps flipping out so water can get all over the bathroom floor. They supposedly supply conditioner, shampoo and body wash. The body wash was completely empty. The box of tissues was completely empty. The thing you're supposed to get your ice in is from dollar tree not even a plastic bag in it like most hotels/motels have. Just a dirty bowl that clearly has not been washed because the tag is completely intact. When I got out of the shower and walked back into the room, my feet felt like I was walking on sand and grit. I haven't even been to the beach yet. The floors are gross. I don't think they mop or sweep if they don't see something on it. Had to put the towel on the side of my bed to wipe my feet before I got in bed because there's so much grime on it. Had to clean my feet before I put my shoes on. The doors slam shut. Everybody on this floor is constantly slamming their doors very loud. These rooms are not soundproof in any way at all. The person on my right had a bunch of kids that were running and screaming down the hall and going in and out and letting the door slam. The people on my left sound like they were rearranging the room for over an hour. Constant booming. I'm sitting here trying to watch t v and I guess someone turned on a shower in some other unit around me and the video is what it sounds like in my room. It sounds like they're right next to me. In the same room. Bedtime is approaching and i'm so worried about how much noise there is going to be tonight. I am so tired or I would leave and tell them to give me my money back. I don't feel like trying to check in somewhere else this late. This place is such a disappointment. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE to anybody unless they're just trying to throw their money away. Have dirty feet, bring their own body wash, and listen to banging and slamming doors and people running around screaming and yelling in the hallway. Not to mention the chore to get out on the balcony, to look at the beach. read more

Hotel is right on the water. Rooms are large. Staff was friendly. Parking was plentiful. That's the good. On the other hand, the hotel is a bit dated and could use a refurb. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything going on in the hallway and in the adjacent rooms. We wanted to hear the ocean waves, but ended up just hearing our neighbors talking and watching TV or walking up and down the hallways. read more

We've stayed here multiple times - even when it was a Hampton Inn early when built. The location, amenities, oceanfront, balcony, lighthouse , being able to walk on the beach, listen to the waves while sleeping, seeing the lighthouse at work at night is all the reason we come. Anyone can pick at things the hotel does not control, but looking at the experience and not the little things is why we have a great experience here. This trip (29Dec24) found the hotel busy. Finally stopped raining after a week or so. No more 30 foot waves and low tide !! Walk to the lighthouse at low tide only. Covered in water other times. The room had a balcony - we paid extra for the balcony and rocking chairs ! No carpet on our rooms, so very clean. Memory foam mattress is clearly not everyone's thing but they are comfy. Shower has lots hot water and lots of pressure. Our room was clean. Staff is friendly - even though they are always short handed. Hard to find quality employees in such a city. Being able to walk out the back door to be on the beach is amazing. The restaurant (shorthanded too) can be a wait - but sitting on the water makes it bearable! A bar / decent menu - all make it a great stay for us. We overlook the small stuff to have a oceanfront - every room looking at the ocean for less than $200 a night a great deal - even if you wait a bit - or see a mess another guest made. The experience is what makes us return. The sunset alone is worth the effort to stay here. Every other hotel in this town is farther away and closer to the highways. read more

Short summary: The hotel cancelled my reservation the day before my trip (for an 8th grade basketball tournament) and gave my room away, even though I had made a reservation weeks prior. We had to scramble to make other plans. At least 5 other families planning to stay there at the same time had to re-confirm their credit card information the day before the trip (which they said was frustrating and confusing), but they managed to do so and did not have their reservations cancelled. When trying to rectify my problem, I found the manager "Nicky" to be rude, arrogant, and unprofessional, saying it was my fault, and he'd rather have clients "pissed off at him" than to risk having people reserving rooms with a credit card with no funds (even though that did NOT apply to me). The families that stayed there said the pool was nasty, there was black mold all over the workout room, the rooms were ok, and the views were beautiful. Long version: I had made a reservation 6 weeks before an 8th grade regional basketball tournament to stay with my family of four for 2 nights. The day before our trip, I was informed via email that my reservation was cancelled, with no explanation. After several attempts to try and get an answer, I was finally able to get a hold of the front desk (whose number is not readily available on their website). The front desk pulled up my information, renewed my booking (confirming the same exact credit card information I had provided during the original booking). I thought the problem was solved, but 30 min later I received a call from "Nicky", the manager, saying that the hotel was actually fully booked and they couldn't give me a room. In a frustrating conversation with him, he said that their computer had tried to run my credit card and it was blocked. They called me to get payment information at 10am, 2 days before the trip, leaving only a single voicemail. I didn't return the call b/c I didn't see the message, and they cancelled my reservation 14 hrs later. I found out from 5 other families from our team that also had reservations for the same weekend that they too had similar issues (but they were able to respond in time before getting their reservation cancelled). They were all confused and frustrated by the experience, as none of us have had to do this for any other hotels. I explained to Nicky that there was something wrong with his system and he should look into it b/c I've never had any issues with my credit card like this, and there were many other families that had issues. He said it was my fault b/c I didn't have enough funds on the card; he said he designed the system himself (b/c he used to work for Meta, supposedly) and he knows how credit cards work, and that there's nothing wrong with the system. I can appreciate wanting to make sure that people have funds or credit to pay for a room, but that is something that is typically addressed at check-in. He said he'd rather have clients "pissed off at him" than to risk having people holding reserving rooms with a credit card with no funds. He said I needed to call my credit card company b/c the issue was with them. [I did call them and they had NO record of any declined transactions or the like for the time in question.] Throughout the conversation I found Nicky to be unprofessional, arrogant, and rude. Although he added me to the waitlist, it was unlikely I'd get a room since my trip was the next day. I explained I was frustrated and realized that there wasn't much he could do at this point. I encouraged him to reconsider the process and system he was using, especially since this process was not communicated or explained at any point, and giving me 14 hrs to respond to their credit card inquiry was unreasonable. But, he was defensive and ended up escalating the situation, instead of de-escalating. One idea, hypothesized by the other families staying there, was that they were trying to free up rooms because of the very high demand that weekend to be able to charge more for the rooms. We scrambled and managed to find a last-minute Airbnb and stayed there. To Nicky's credit, he did text me the morning of our trip saying he could put me in a room, but there was no way I'd be giving him my business at that point. From the families that did stay at the hotel, they said the rooms were a bit run down but worked fine. But things were a little loud (given the packed hotel). The views were lovely. The pool was nasty (with a disconcerting film on it), and the exercise room had black mold everywhere. I've never left a negative review online before, but I was so annoyed with the whole situation that I had to write this. After seeing several other negative reviews of the staff and rooms, I'm actually glad it worked out like this for my family. I hope the management and staff actually take this feedback to heart and implement changes to avoid unnecessary last-minute hardships for clients that had made reservations read more

Older hotel that is in need of some renovation. Our room wasn't too bad, just outdated. The location of it was awesome considering it was right next to the beach, lighthouse and pier. Upon arriving though after check in, when I got to our room the door was open and there was a towel on the bed. The front desk though gave me a new room with no issue. The only thing that I would suggest is for them to explain that you need to use the fob to enter the room. After trying for 5 min with the card, that was attached to the fob, I went back downstairs to say my key was not working when he explained to me that I needed to use the fob. read more

Not worth the price at all. I am a traveling seasonal resort employee for 5 years now. I've been front of the house and back. And I KNOW this place is missing out on management- so many thing s wrong. No toilet paper or tissues In room- shampoo and soap all empty- pool was cloudy and too hot and hot tub did not work. Sauna sis not work. Outer door to pool was broke. And anyone could make there way into the hotel they the pool area. The phone In original room I booked did not work - I up graded to room with balcony- to again get room with so many things missing. It's a great spot. But I know someone is dropping the ball. read more

We stayed here during a coastal road trip and appreciated the waterfront location. I don't mind outdated amenities if they're clean, but both our rooms had a strong urine smell in the bathrooms--one worse than the other. Even basic cleaning with bleach or a bathroom spray would have helped. At $240 per room in peak season, cleanliness should be a given. Also, the outlets weren't working, which added to the inconvenience. Please check each room to ensure conditions are at least tolerable for guests. read more

The restaurant was good. The view was great! The beach was pretty accessible. Everything was really close to the hotel. They're very worried about theft and smoking, but, when I was there it was employees smoking everywhere, not the guests. So, maybe not be so threatening with the fines. read more

Better customer service! Very rude and didn't care. My family rented 3 rooms. One the toilet always clogged up. They advertise the hot tub, but the jets don't work. The first night the pool was disgusting they said they would clean it. I would never recommend this hotel at all. I could go on but I'll leave at that! read more

This is not the ocean view we were promised when we booked.. This is what we got, a view of 'some dilapidated shack with loads of crap' in front of our room. Maybe they gave us this room cos we are Indians. And also there is a weird smell near our headboards ,noticed while sleeping. read more

i am a disabled Vietnam Veteran that is struggling with terminal brain cancer. I explained this to the desk clerk and ask for her to check my reservation. She said all looked good and checked us in. Several days later I checked my credit card and saw they charged me over $6500.00 for 1 night. Booking.com was able to recover most of it but they still charged me over $820 for 1 night. I had mistakenly reserved room for 32 nights. All attempts to contact manager have failed. read more

Bathroom was awful. Smelled like old dry urine. Ants, yes, ANTS in the bathroom also. The soap dish was all cracked. I have never written a review, but this expensive hotel may as well have been a Motel 6. The "shower chair" did not fit in the shower. And there were cobwebs in the corner. I accidentally spilled some water next to the TV and the rag was so filthy after wiping it up. The paint was cracked and peeling all over the place, and I have never NEVER seen an elevator waiting area as disgusting. a drink of some kind had spilled down the wall and the general grime was so bad. read more

Like other reviews mentioned the whole hotel is in need of updating and upkeep. However, getting an ocean front room makes those details easy to overlook. Room service doesn't come every day unless you ask. The pool and hot tub area was pretty messy. Front desk is hit or miss. Overall, for the price and the location I think it's worth a stay in this sweet little town. read more

First off, I made my reservation online over two months before my stay and requested an early check-in. When I arrived they said the room was not ready and to come back in a couple hours. I went for a walk on the freezing beach and then decided to go get a bite to eat for warmth. When I came back the room was ready and after checking in I was informed that a 100 dollar hold on my credit card for any damages done to the room would be released after check-out. I agreed and went up to the room which was on the third floor with a lighthouse view but with no deck. I then took a shower and the drain was clogged which filled up the tub. The water that floated up from the drain was gross, so I got out and went down to the front desk to report it. The girl behind the desk assured me that I would not be charged which I wasn't but when I asked if it could be fixed she said not today. I was not offered another room or refunded for not being able to use something I paid for. I left pretty early the next morning and went to the front desk to find a basket with a note saying to check out just drop your keys in the basket. I did but did not feel that this was a safe or correct way to do business. I would not recommend this place to anyone!!!!! read more

I would not recommend this place. There were no managers present during our stay, which made it difficult to resolve any issues. One staff member in particular a woman with black hair, bangs, and red tinsel was especially rude to us. Several amenities in the room were broken, including the tub jets, and there was visible mold near the headboard and in the bathroom. For the price we paid, the experience was far below expectations. read more

After receiving our room we noticed that the toilet wasn't flushing, brought it to the attention to get a new room or get the problem fixed. There were no rooms available to switch, they offered a plunger, for we can plunged ourselves and the problem persisted they said I'll tell the manager ...had to go downstairs every time to use the bathroom. My whole family was uncomfortable. It had been two days and management still hadn't reached out to us after our complaint. Upon checkout asked to talk to manager but wasn't there this was a bad experience overall at oceanfront Lodge in Crescent city will not be staying here again..... read more

Unfortunately, this place although lots of potential is a total dump. Grass is long and overgrown, building needs paint and upkeep. In one of the upstairs rooms there were pizza boxes posted in the windows. They set their employees up for failure with limited staff they are rushing and the service is poor - having dinner served with plastic because "they were all out of silverware" which really meant, "we are about to close and need to get home to come back tomorrow and dont want to wash dishes. The rooms are cold and gross. Beds are on a frame that shifts very easily and the mattress is hard.The bathtub was coming apart and we couldn't get out of there fast enough. The only reason we stayed was because it was late and the front desk was friendly. You can't help but feel bad for the staff. read more

After a 13 Hour drive to get to Crescent City and all I was looking forward to a hot shower and a good night sleep. When getting the beds ready for the family, I peeled back the comforter and saw little specs. Chalked it up for sand as this place is by the beach and Thankfully, nothing was moving. After peeling it back a little bit further I noticed there were a half a dozen hairs on the bed, I stopped, and then started to peel back the layers on the second bed. More hairs!! I understand that the body loses hair all the time but after having an aunt that cleaned houses and staying at many hotels over my lifetime, I've never seen nothing to this extreme. I peeled back the next layer to review the fitted sheet, and it two had quite a few hairs on both beds. I went to the front desk, asked to see if there was a maid present that could redo the beds. The young lady at the desk seemed overworked and said she will go and do it herself as there is nobody that can do it. she will just need to find somebody to cover the desk. After a couple minutes of her wandering around looking for somebody , and being so exhausted, I decided to say I will do it myself. No apology knowing a guest should not have to do this as it's part of providing customer service. A clean bed...what a concept. After being handed a new fitted sheet and flat sheet, I proceeded back upstairs with the family to tackle the maids job on a hotel I paid for. Maybe something they should add in their amenities. you make your own bed ha ha ha. When I proceed to remove the fitted sheet, I found that the protective sheet that keeps the mattress safe was 10 times worse. Not sure when that sheet was ever washed or changed. there was hair and who knows what else that yellow crystal like substance was. At this point, I was at a loss....for the price paid. The details should be taken care of like changing a bed. I proceeded back downstairs to see the young lady still frustrated. Trying to deal with multiple guests after the bar and restaurant had closed and people purchasing some items from their drink shop. Might be an idea to keep a bartender available later as people still want to drink. I then asked her for a replacement sheet so I could just get some sleep since I need to strip the entire bed to the mattress now due to it never being done and so much hair. It just had a nasty yuck factor. She then told me she didn't know what that she was so that just lets me know that when she first offered to change the sheets she might've never change the bed before. Don't offer if you yourself don't know how to do something. So far we've stripped everything down and the only part that the kids and I like is the view. I guess all of the negative reviews are true. I just thought I would give this place a chance, but clearly the name change on the building that's happening is not the only thing that needs to be changed. I recommend Gordon Ramsay come into this place or some sitcom person to save this hotel because clearly, this place needs help. All the pictures people have posted have not seem to influence management in this establishment to do anything about it. I had plans to go down one of the stairways to not have to wait for the elevator and it would be fun to have some exercise with the kids after sitting for so long. I felt scared going down them. I've been into Long Beach beach bathrooms that looked safer. Update: So after bringing this who experience and all explained to the morning desk clear. They used the same sheets that I used turned inside out but they only made the best better then me and changed the towels and changed trash. They left me the old dirty sheets I pulled from the bed. I tried to bring this up to a manager but there on vacation and what seemed to be the owner behind the desk. (An elderly Asian Lady check shop prices on liquor) said she was not a manager and went back to price checking. I was passed to the restaurant manager. Another family member. Explained all of this to her, and she seemed generally sympathetic. She asked me what she could do. I said really, at this point it's up to you since I have had to make the beds for you and brought it up twice with your team. She saw I had my kids with me and she tried to offer ice cream but I explained politely that we just ate and had dessert. She insisted it's really good and that she would be more than happy to have it on the house. I insisted again we had eaten but stated food down the street at the microbrew was really good food and we eat there. She took a second and said I wouldn't eat there and that place is infested with rats. I don't know why people like that place. Sounds like they are really connected with the business community that they're trying to roll their fellow community members in a small town like Crescent city under the bus. Really does not seem like this family is from the city that they work and live. read more

Place looks like it was built in the 50's but I just found out it is only 20 years old. The son who "runs" the place is no where close to a professional manager of a hotel. Very rude. He laughed at the thought of having low reviews. During a power outage (fire) he still charged Full price when it should have been discounted since Pool, spa, mini fridge, tv or light to use restroom were out. At least the firefighters got a discount -well deserved. read more

It is a hugh shame that this hotel is in a good location and has such beautiful views of the ocean but is so rundown. Our room was spacious but not very clean - the carpets need to be deep-cleaned or better yet, replaced, and there was something black at the top of one of the walls that we couldn't distinguish if it was a dead bug or mold as we didn't want to get too close. Trash on the floors in the entrance lobby and hallways took a very long time to be picked up. Some of the staff at check-in and in the restaurant were not very welcoming or happy. I would advise everyone to stay elsewhere in Crescent City. read more

If you need a place to sleep this is the place to go but don't expect anything more. It's located on such a nice beach view it's disappointing to go back inside. I waited literally 5 minutes at the front desk Watching a dog in a basket behind the register growl at me before I walked into the kitchen to get help, A wet shirt, sweatpant wearing and flip flop person asked me if I needed any help. I thought he was a tourist coming from the swimming pool area when in fact he was the person who checked me in after I walked back from the kitchen. After my 2nd trip back to the front desk because my card didn't work I finally got in my room. I immediately took pictures of the unplugged phone the broken door frame the hair in my towels and the Ken & Barbbie size television. The edge of the beds are so hard you can feel the metal rods going around the edge so I decided to sleep in my clothes. I didn't see anybody inside the indoor pool however the kitchen area and dining room was full of people. This large property is on the edge of a beautiful coastline Well, that's all I have to say about that... read more

I stayed here while I worked in the area. This place is run down and dirty. There is no room service to freshen up the room with extended stays. The TP was almost gone when I checked in and had to go to the front desk to ask for a role. The reading light on the desk was unplugged but since I had work to do I plugged it in and all it would do is flash and not function correctly. There isn't a closed bed frame like most places but if you decided to stay here do not look under the bed, huge mistake I did before writing this review. With work I lost track of time and day. I was supposed to check out on a Sunday but that blew by my mind. The room key didn't work so I had to visit the front desk. I missed my check out but they extended me since they had plenty of vacancies. They extended me this night but charged me an additional $80 more than the past 6 nights to $219 a night vs $139 the past nights. I would not stay here and wouldn't even recommend it to my ex-wife which I like about as much as Trump. Save yourselves and find a different place. Even at the $139 a night it is not worth it! read more

Absolutely disgusting place - I was there for 2 hours before I checked out. The Jacuzzi tub was slimy and full of dirt and hair. I found Cockroaches around the fridge, spiders under the bed, and see the black bug I found IN my bed. The floors were covered in dust and hair. I immediately checked out after I found the bugs. The towels in the bathroom were tattered/ripped and stained. Signs on the wall that anything removed from the room is stealing and is priced at $25+ per item. The Shampoos/Conditioners in the bathrooms were watered down to the point of clear separation between the water and soap. See the many MANY reviews before me about bugs. I have called the front desk many times asking for management to contact me. It's going on 2 weeks and they "Don't know when management will be back in office" as they don't seem to have a schedule. I filed a chargeback on my credit card and will be filing with the health department for safety hazards. DO NOT STAY HERE. read more

Once you visit Crescent City, you will realize there are so many other places to stay that are much better options and a better value. Oceanfront Lodge is old in style and furnishings. The staff at the front desk sat throughout our whole conversation and had to be pressed to offer the basic info about the hotel. Our room was not clean and there were bugs in the bathroom. The towels were old and some were thread bare. There was an unpleasant odor in the room. And I understand that this hotel is located at the beach and it will be easier to clean bare floors, but when you don't have any rugs in the room, it is uncomfortable to feel the bits of sand on the floor that they weren't able to clean out. They have a restaurant on-site that is under different management that is horribly run, completely unprofessional and unsanitary. The pricing for this property is comparable to a four star hotel. Do not be fooled and pay a high price. Being on the beach at this hotel is not worth the price they are charging. Please do not come here. read more

Room reeked of smoke, was stained, and dirty. Avoid this hotel at all costs. They tell you you will have an ocean view but the windows are too dirty to see it. This felt like a room people would rent by the hour. read more

I actually LOVED this place, and I'm sure glad that I didn't see the other reviews before booking this. Im surprised the place is only 20 years old, it does feel like it's from the 50's. We booked it for the views, and from that standpoint, it sure did not disappoint!! Best views of anywhere I've stayed worldwide, except maybe Hawaii, Bali and Guam. We had a view of the working lighthouse from our bed, and the balcony had ROCKING LAWN CHAIRS! I found that part just divine. The beds were comfy, shower was great, and the restaurant looked so pretty. LOVED the friendly dogs belonging to the front desk crew; so fun and welcoming. My biggest concern was that there was no carpet, so the halls were LOUD, like when people rolled luggage carriers past, ugh! One dog barked loudly close to bedtime, but only once, thank God, cuz sound really does carry in that place. Other than that it was quiet and we slept like babies, probably due to the surf. I'd actually go back. read more

See all

The breakfast was super overpriced, and the pool & hot tub both had a weird chemical giving it a film on top. The shower had mold in it and instead of it being cleaned, a mat was poorly glued to the bottom and was peeling, revealing both the mold (and blood colored glue). read more
