Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms, despite having an amazing view of the ocean and surroundings, were very dated and not well maintained. The staff seemed to be arguing over compensation, which left a negative impression. However, the balcony offered a great spot to enjoy the view of the ocean, surfers, and wildlife.
Absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, right by the beach and close to some great dining spots. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff, especially Brittany, were incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dining options were somewhat limited. Overall, a fantastic experience!
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with comfortable and relaxing rooms and exceptional service.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, albeit a bit outdated, were comfortable. However, the cleanliness was lacking, with old floral mattresses and thin sheets.

The hotel offers a mix of positives like a friendly staff and a great location, but the outdated rooms may not suit everyone. Dining can be a bit pricey. However, the proximity to the beach and surrounding restaurants adds to the overall charm.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. On one hand, the room offered a great view of the Pacific ocean from the door of my third-floor room, but on the other hand, it seemed like the room had not been renovated since the 1950s. The location was superb, providing direct access to one of the best beaches, making it perfect for a family reunion or a romantic meal. However, the service, while first-rate, seemed to overlook some crucial guest needs at times.
The hotel is conveniently part of a blocked section for wedding guests, offering comfortable but slightly tired rooms that are right off the pool area. The staff is very nice and attentive, ensuring a relaxing stay up to the standards of the Shores. The location is perfect for enjoying the great weather and nearby restaurants, with easy access to one of the best beaches.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were one of the nicest we've stayed in for quite some time; they were clean and decorated in a beach theme, but they felt very dated. Unfortunately, encountering bugs and witnessing disagreements between staff and guests over compensation left a bad impression.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the positive side, the staff was extremely accommodating and diligent with every request we made, and the location was quiet with a soft spot in my heart.
