5-star location with 1-star service
Stones Throw has been our favorite restaurant for years and we were so excited to finally stay in its beautiful hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and came with an amazing view of the beach. When we arrived, the hotel had no record of my payment through hotels.com and tried to re-charge me for the full stay. Then they took down my info and said they would let me know if they had any issues. Despite being charged and paying for the second night, and showing the office staff receipts and statements, they called and texted me multiple times over the course of our stay and after we left, chasing us for payment that was already made. This really put a damper on our stay and it will be the first and last time we will stay with Stones Throw as a result. They made me feel like I was some kind of thief while I was trying to relax on a hard earned vacation. I emailed the office over 24 hours ago and have not received a response. Abysmal customer service.

Nice but wouldn’t come again.
Nice hotel. Overpriced for the amenities and location. Right on beach but no elevators - having an elderly person was tough. Also parking a bit of a crapshoot. No office open after they roll the sidewalks up so no one to get info from.

We booked the balcony, ocean front view which was beautiful. The location is great, right across the street from the beach, next to the general store and restaurant/ bar downstairs. We enjoyed eating breakfast on the roof deck. The only downfall was it felt like more It's more of a party vibe but it could have been because we stayed over Memorial day weekend when it was very crowded.

Hospitality of staff and cleanliness of room, plus location across from the beach make this hotel stand out. I didn’t like having to go up 2 flights of stairs to access my room. Having a hot water pot & coffee bags in the room do not make up for not offering complimentary coffee or breakfast.
