Expert reviews:

Lonely Planet

"Palm trees, blooming flowers, and perfectly manicured lawns. Life is good at this lush 46-room motel across the street from the harbor."

"Located across a busy boulevard from the marina, within walking distance to the pier, dining and entertainment, this hotel is one of only a handful of chains on the beach." Full review

Among these, request 201 to 205, which offer filtered glimpses of the marina.
