John Yancey Oceanfront Inn
It was clean and the staff were very nice. It's right at the beach which is great. The breakfast was fine but can be improved.

Barrier Island Station
We had a wonderful stay. Perfect for my family of 4. Well equipped kitchen and plenty of space. The kids loved the indoor pool and I enjoyed the fitness room and sauna. Would definitely stay again.
