The room itself was very nice but there were some minor repairs that needed attention such as loose bathroom doorknob, loose toilet seat and loose lightbulb fixture over bathroom sink.

A nice enough overall setting but the rooms need a coat of paint, additional locks on the doors and better control of the humidity. Our 1st room smelt awful. Possibly moldy.

The property was small. The bed was old and the bathroom was outdated. Too much noise outside the room after 10pm.

Okay
Meris Gardens was nice enough, but it seemed a little run down. Cobwebs in all the doorways, yard overgrown. Just seemed kind of old and dingy. They only cleaned the room the first day we were there, the second day we got back from the beach to find no one had cleaned. The owners were nice, just seemed pricey for what it was. Nice location, though. Only a few minutes drive from the beach.

This property was quaint and perfect for a family trip to the beach. My favorite part was meeting the proprietor at Breakfast each morning. Even though the rooms were not exactly B&B, it was so nice that the owner made breakfast and chatted with everyone. In that sense, it had a very nice B&B feel to the place.

For a place that has been there many years, it was surprisingly in fine, comfortable condition. Room appeared recently renovated, neat and clean. They served free breakfast in a nice hospitality room which was delicious, each morning. I would definitely like to stay there again in the future.

Its clean and Ms. Sue is really nice. We stayed in the garden room near the office. It is the only room that is separate from the rest of rooms but connected to the main office and kitchen I believe.

Great, friendly mf accommodating staff. Basic, tasteful rooms. I really liked the breakfast options more than most.
The rooms was small but had a cozy feel...
they allow dogs do that is great! Oh my, if they had a fenced in area, I’d return every year!
