“Waking to the sound of the sea defines a stay here, especially in rooms with balconies overlooking the beach and lifeguard station; it's a prime spot for watching the full moon rise. I think its location places guests within easy reach of the town center and library, good for shopping and dining. Though experiences may vary, the draw here is undeniably the seafront setting.”
