"Great place to stay , very professional staff from check-in to check-out"

Enjoyed our stay ! From check-in to check-out everyone we dealt with was a cheer and professional. We had one of the Cottages with 2 bed and 2 bathroom and a private hot tub on the patio. Definitely worth it , the unit os fully setup with a kitchen and utensils needed. Very roomy , heated floors in the master bathroom and both bathrooms come with a tub. "Coastal Perfection"

Long Beach Lodge never disappoints. Whether you are watching the waves sipping a cocktail in the Great Room, or surfing them yourself, this is paradise. "came for work, stayed an extra night!"

Came up for work an extended my stay since everything was so wonderful! Great team! Cozy room! Oliver (my pup) was made to feel so welcome.
