Overall hotel was nice, clean and staff were very nice. You have beach access which is really nice because it is hard to find public beach access on the island. Only thing that would be nice is bigger pool and fitness center.

Wonderful stay. Fast check in and out. Excellent breakfast. Beautiful beach with direct private access. Room clean and beds comfortable. Only issue was noisy overhead upstairs guests but office graciously contacted room guests above us to quiet down. Kids may have been running around and jumping up and down.

The back of the property is... the beach!
Note, it is a motel called Shutters. So they use shutters, not curtains. Expect light leakage, which might affect light sleepers.
Staff were really friendly and helpful.

It’s right on the water but houses different views. We booked a 2 queen dune room and found it comfortable but the bathroom is very small. The staff were great and it offers a nice little breakfast. The walkway to the beach is smooth enough to pull a cart or walk. The gazebo gives a great view of the ocean and the convenience of two pools was even a plus. Lots of small shops and places to eat near by. We would stay again.
