We had a wonderful stay at the Sunset Inn. The owner and staff are super friendly and made our stay a very nice experience. Location is great- very close to the ocean and I enjoyed seeing the local deer every morning right across the street from the Inn.

nice area by the coast
quick one night stay; lady at front desk was very helpful-let me know how to turn on heater and if it did not work told me to contact her right away so she could light the pilot; fireplace was a nice part of the room; very large room and bathroom was clean; it is an older property, but still very comfortable; would stay here again

Great place to stay.
The place is walking distance to the ocean, Lighthouse and Monarch Sanctuary. Our room was very clean and bed was very comfortable. The hosts are very kind and accommodating. I Would definitely stay here again.

It was great. Bed was a little firm for me and my neck but if you like a firm mattress it will be great. Super clean room and cool shower. Can walk everywhere.
