We didn't really realize that this was a lodge/motel room (thought it was a home/cottage) - just different that we expected. It had everything promised and Elizabeth was a great host. It's a great location at the top of the hill with a great view - options to stay closer to the ocean are also available if that was someones desire. Love the garden space around the place - it made if feel more like a private space. Elizabeth was very helpful in helping us with local updates about whales and dolphin sightings. Great Stay.
