Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach

Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach

10/10 Excellent
"This is a real nice and unique property. Small lobby with a comfortable sitting area in front of a fireplace. Good continental breakfast that can be eaten al fresco just outside the lobby or by the pool. Happy hour is daily but we were disappointed in the quality of the wine so did not go the second night. Location is in a relatively quiet neighborhood and close to the waterfront / marina. Easy to walk to the walking path along the water. Bicycles available. Friendly and helpful staff."

"Very comfortable rooms, helpful staff, and less than five minutes walk from the beach. The welcome drinks were much appreciated! Parking is a little tight though, and unfortunately, some guests have huge cars that make it difficult to squeeze into the space next to them."

"Great property for families, centrally located and overall wonderful experience. The resort is a little dated and could use a small facelift, but overall it was well maintained. My biggest gripe was that none of the ice makers around the property were working."
