I usually don't stay at small type motels, but this was a great stay. Our room was small and clean, however, very quiet. Great location and very close to the beach. Friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this motel and look forward to staying again.

We are so happy with our stay! What a gem of a motel. Love that it was pet-friendly too, and our fur baby had a very relaxing stay as well. We found our new go-to place in SB! Super friendly staff, the room was super cute, clean, and modern. And you can't beat the location!

check in was quick and pleasant. The room was updated and very clean, everything worked. Breakfast was outstanding, all items were fresh. My 5th stay at this property and have never been disappointed. The upgrade was also a big plus, did not even ask for it.

We have stayed at the Marina Beach Hotel before and have always had a pleasant stay. The parking is a challenge since i drive a large SUV. And, the bathroom sinks are fairly small. But, we like the location and the front desk staff has always been friendly and helpful.
