Ok to stay

Like the fact that hotel is feet away from the beach and walking distance to all the dining and shopping stores. Just FYI no elevator. Daniel at the front desk is great

10/10 Exceptional

Jackie and Daniel were the receptionist working while we stayed there and they were so sweet and nice about everything. They made our stay easy and comfortable my husband and I both agreed we would stay there again. Room was a little small but it wasn’t a big issue, other than that we loved it. Yes you can hear people hanging outside in the chair by the room but we are heavy sleepers so that didn’t affect us either

Avalon stay

Was a small hotel on the Main Street. The room was pretty small but the courtyard made up for it.Service was excellent . Daniel was great. He was helpful before and during our stay. Breakfast was tasty local muffins, bear claws with fruits, yogurt,juice ,coffee and tea. Would definitely stay there again.
