Updates
Nice place, but they really need to fix how those windows are built because the light comes in soon. As the Sun comes up, the cleaning could have been a lot better as well, but it was nice overall but it needs some serious updates. I think they charge quite a bit for a place that needs a lot of updates

Ashley at check in, was friendly and helpful. The only issue in our room (201) was with the Internet/cable. The connection was not stable, but we were out of the room so not an issue, but would be for a longer stay.

Comfortable Nostalgia
I loved the quiet, beachy feel of Magic Beach. It made me feel connected to simpler times and the beach vacations our parents and grandparents used to take. It was nice to park right in front of our room and get to things very easily. We had a kitchen which was a plus. The room itself was quiet and comfortable. The beds were perfect. Every day, we walked out the door to the beach just steps to the east. There is a view of the lighthouse and island just past the large rocks. There is a perfect view of the lighthouse shining at night, from the beach or a paved parking spot along the causeway. If you have four wheel drive, you can even drive and park on the sand. We drove across the bridge to downtown and all of the sights. There is so much to do within a few minutes of the hotel. We will be back!

Was perfect. Right on the water. Nostalgic gem. They went above and beyond to accommodate us traveling with a boat.

Surfside Six
This is a funky, retro type of motel that reminded us of the 60's. The room was clean & the bed was very comfy, but bathroom was on the small side. Our 1 night stay was good & I appreciated the remote control device for lights & fan. It would be good to have a vending machine fir water & beverages, but the man on duty when we checked out gave us his bottles of water - very nice & much appreciated! It was a cute little place right next to the beach.

The motel is dirty and broken. Reserved two nights and arrived late the first night. Almost left that night, but we had driven all day. Left early the next morning. The only reason I gave two stars rather than one is the front desk receptionist was awesome. She refunded my second day even though she didn’t have to. The only reason I’m leaving this review is because I reserved here relying on reviews I’d seen from here.
