Amazing little place to stay.
Very very clean.
Only complaint it is very very close to the road.
But I used my noise machine to drown out the traffic noise.
Very very cozy!!!

Loved the vintage coastal vibe. Very clean. Communication was excellent via text. We asked for and received a late check in with clear instructions and we had no issues. Could not give 5 stars to area because the hotel is on a major road and there is road noise. Would stay here again!

Adorable & Quaint Mom & Pop style motel - but updated, decorated and landscaped to the max. Great location, just a mile from the beach. Lots of shopping and restaurants near by.

The location is great for access to Manasota Key. I was there to address hurricane damage on the key and the hotel also had some damage to the pool which was being addressed. Anna, the property manager, was wonderful and would ask if I needed anything and was very sweet and helpful. The hotel is clean and safe. I was pleasantly surprised with a lovely stay.

I am so happy that I gave this quaint property a chance! Don’t let its size fool you, it has all the amenities you need, with exceptionally clean rooms and a location that makes it easy to tour the area. That’s just the beginning!!! The beds, pillows, and linens are the most comfortable I’ve ever experienced at a lodging property. The icing on the cake is the amazing customer service from the owner. My daughter and I felt like we were staying with family. We were treated so kindly and Anna went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Can’t wait to return!
