Pros (+) Wonderful almost private beach. Great view. Enjoyed the fact that it is smaller. They have assorted beach toys that can be borrowed.

Pros (+) This is an older, ocean side hotel a bit south of the main strip. Excellent staff and location, but definitely not posh. It's an older hotel that does show its age. The "breakfast" consists of bread, bagels, fruit, orange juice, cereal, 'waffles', a true continental breakfast. You pay for the ocean access (not view).
