“Staying here feels like stepping back to a simpler time, where the ocean's rhythm dictates the pace. The sound of the waves is ever-present, a constant reminder of the proximity to the beach. It's an unpretentious, comfortable spot, ideal for those who value direct access to the shore above all else.”
