Guest rooms are styled with pastel colors and beach inspired décor at Buena Vista by the Sea; they come with full kitchens and free Wi-Fi. Select units offer ocean views. Wow what a great little motel. It was like staying at your nan's place. Exceptionally clean to the point of immaculate, and wow that view! The furniture was old fashioned but in excellent condition. We watched seals playing at the front and an eagle eating a fish. There was also a kitchenette that was well appointed in terms of functionality and appliances. Great value for money.
