This kitschy two-story motel in a converted 1970s apartment building is clean and comfortable, surrounded by tropical gardens, and just off the beach. Some rooms are a block away from the water, and a few are just a walk down the boardwalk. The bright rooms are fairly ordinary, decorated in tropical prints. Completely furnished suites, designed to sleep six, are great for families; each includes two bedrooms and a living room, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen. The throw-back property isn't for everyone, but those who dig it return year after year. Pros: kitchen; barbecue grills. Cons: lots of kid noise; a hike to the beach; seven-day cancellation policy.
