Paying for location
Location is great. Staff was friendly and helpful. For the price, I would expect the beds to be more comfortable and the towels, sheets and pillows to be higher quality.

Terrible service at check in. Very long line, person at counter very slow. Everyone in front of us got a room even though they were early. We had to wait 45 minutes after checking in to get keys. Highly recommend 2 people during check in time.

CJ at the front desk was lovely!! Other than that I’d avoid this hotel. It was dirty, peeling paint, mold residue, and the pool looked dirty as well. I checked in and checked out within the hour.

Great location and very nice room
Location was great - close to beach and golf and downtown PG. Room was very nice with comfortable bed. Bathroom was clean but a little small. Breakfast was great - hot food, big selection. No electric car charger. Will stay here again.

The room was clean and had no problem with that. The tv was a little small but not that important on a 1 night stay. Overall it was a good experience and will return.

I loved our little private cottage. The blue paint color on the outside was perfect! We enjoyed how close it was to the light house and the ocean! There was a lot of room in the cottage and great ambiance!

I absolutely love the lighthouse Lodge. The staff was amazing and they upgraded my room. However, I wish I would’ve been on one of the top lodges. I felt like there was not much airflow on the bottom. Other than that, it was amazing. I will definitely stay there again.
