Cynthia M, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

You can not beat this location. It is right on the beach and boardwalk in the midst of the action; with a private locked entrance. It was amazing; we loved our stay. Now - it's not deluxe, i do think the beach and sand environment affects so many things. Yet, we loved it and would return!

Best stay on the boardwalk

I have stayed at the property many times over the years and love the location. Beds are comfortable and it’s very clean! Staff is super friendly. I’ve stayed at more expensive places on the boardwalk and they were not great. Aside from newer decor the stay was disappointing, because of that I always return to the Beach Cottages!
