This is a very small (only 7 rooms) sitting right on the beach. We chose it because it is the only pet friendly motel on Mexico Beach. The room was spacious and very clean. We had a huge window that looked right out onto the water. There is a grocery store just across the street and wonderful restaurants within walking distance. Can't forget to mention the owner...very laid back and friendly. This is our go to place for Mexico Beach.

This place is AMAZING!!! We stayed once and have already booked to return.. Mr. Mike is the kindest person I've ever dealt with during a hotel/ motel stay.. I enjoyed not being crowded on the beach so my children have plenty of room to play!!
Room tip: I have not stayed but in 1 room, room #1, I have heard from other families that have stayed there that room #6 is the best room.

We just stayed over the weekend and it was great. Room 6 has all you could ask for. Mike makes the stay even better. If you're passing through or just staying a night, it's great. Store across the street has all you can need, plus some. Killer Seafood & Toucans also in walking distance.

If you are looking for 5 star resorts dont go here, but if you want a basic motel with an excellent locacition, and a friendly manager you should give this a go. we had 2 night booked, but ended up spending 6 nights here. Mike was very helpfull, and we had 4 nights in room no 6, with a view to die for. guests was relaxed and friendly, and we had many nice chats with them.
Room tip: go for room 5 or 6

This is one of those places that "is what it is". They do not pretend to be a luxury resort. They do not pretend to be a super value place. This place is a 7 room, very small motel directly on the beach that is there for you to lay your head down for the night in between great beach days. Do not expect any luxury amenities. They do have free Wi-Fi, and satellite TV. But that's about it. This place is OLD, but somewhat updated. Parking is very limited, although there is extra parking across the street. There are GREAT VIEWS from the communal deck, and it is located directly on the Gulf. The staff is very friendly and eager to please. But again, don't expect much more than a clean room with a descent bed.
