Great place to stay, my wife and kids enjoyed it. Really easy access to the beach within walk distance and the shops and restaurants as well. Overall great stay, enjoyed the breakfast, slept through the night no loud noises or anything around, awesome place.

The inn is right across the harbor. Spent the weekend with family. We took a walk to Chad's for brunch and Brophy Bros for a dinner. We had a great time. Excellent location!

Not happy about the swimming pool being ice cold. Pool heater was damaged from the last storm is what the front desk employee told me when I asked why the pool is cold. The employee said that it was on your website. Why would I keep looking at your website when I booked way in advance. We booked your location because of the inviting look and feel along with it having a pool so me and my kids could go swim. It would’ve been nice to get some kind of notification from the hotel letting me know that the pool isn’t operational prior to our arrival. Everything else was great! Nice clean room and entire complex as advertised.

The daily breakfast is a plus for a family with little kids. We can go downstairs to grab them something to eat to hold them over until we’re ready to hit the town. My biggest issue is the loud air con/heater unit. It is not subtle or quiet. Very disruptive of sleep. The bathroom does need a new makeover. Very outdated and appear dingy and old.

There was a out of control family with couple young ones at midnight on a Saturday cruising around screaming and hooting and hollering in the hallways down by the pool. That's a little disturbing and then the kids above jumping around and banging and clunking around. It was kind of noisy that way too

We had a great stay at the Beachside Inn. The room and public areas of the hotel were clean and well kept. The staff were polite and carried out their essential duties in a non-obtrusive way. The entire family enjoyed our stay at the Beachside and we would highly recommend the hotel.

Good value as a family. Staff were all really friendly and welcoming and the Friday evening cheese and wine was a lovely touch. Rooms were very good and clean but slightly dated. Really enjoyed this hotel and will definitely be back.

Location was great!✅ The breakfast was lunch type foods (lunch meat, sliced cheese) mixed with breakfast type foods (“eggs”, pastries, hot/cold cereals) 🫤. The staff was incredibly kind and nice ✅. They have EV chargers✅, but may need charging limitations, a car stay plugged (DC Charger) in and in the space for over a day. The walls are paper thin! We heard full conversations of our neighbors when partying (at midnight whilst attempting to sleep) or just talking ❌. Whole family was itchy not sure if from beach sand or otherwise…the itchiness stopped when we left.

We were only there for one night but loved the location...easy walk along waterfront to Stearns Warf or Funk Zone. Complimentary beakfast was decent and included proteins. Staff was extremely nice and parking was plentiful. It did have a "family" vibe w lots of kids at breakfast and around the property... didn't detract from our stay but worth noting if you're aiming for a romantic get away.
