"Most of the immaculate rooms at this family-run, kid-friendly place on the beach have ocean views and kitchens." Full review
"A family-owned motel with a gorgeous tropical garden surrounding the heated pool, and a large Gulf-view sundeck."
"It’s not fancy and can get noisy in the summer, but this large motel, half a mile east of City Pier, is superb value... Features a tropical garden on the beach and kitchen-equipped rooms in the tower."
