    The ocean view from our room was breathtaking!

    The carpets throughout the hotel desperately need a deep cleaning.

    Fantastic Location with Cozy Comfort

    Enjoyed two nights in a superior double room. The oceanfront view is stunning! Perfectly located near shops and restaurants. The staff truly made a difference, always helpful and friendly. Don't miss the local cafes for breakfast. they complement your beach vibes wonderfully. Book early for best options!

    cozy hotel
    great location
    family-friendly atmosphere
    limited dining options

    We absolutely loved our stay at this cozy beachfront hotel! The courtyard was perfect for our big family, allowing us to relax together. The location was unbeatable, just a short walk to the beach and nearby attractions. The rooms were a nice blend of comfort and charm.

    In my wife’s opinion, more family-friendly dining options would be great.

    great location
    dated decor

    Perfect for a budget getaway

    We had a cozy stay for 2 nights in a queen room. The bathroom was surprisingly nice, with good amenities. The staff was super helpful, lending us beach towels. The location was unbeatable, right by shops and bars! Only thing was our room was a bit dated, but for the price, it didn’t matter much. Great value!

    central location
    delicious pastries
    small tub

    Loved the central location, just steps from the beach! The water provided was a delightful touch, and those morning pastries were simply divine—at least until midday when they turned store-bought. Clever move!

    However, the tub was so tiny I felt like a sardine! And a silverfish in the bathroom? I thought I was in an insect convention!

    attentive staff
    perfect location
    lack of accessibility
    steep stairs

    The location of Hotel Mac Rae is absolutely perfect, just steps away from the beach, allowing me to enjoy breathtaking ocean views right from my window. The staff was attentive and made my stay more enjoyable.

    More accessible options for seniors would be ideal.

    amazing views
    helpful staff

    Great for a Weekend Escape!

    The views were amazing! Waking up to the sound of waves crashing and a sunrise view over the water was something out of a dream. Plus, the staff was helpful, they even put out breakfast early for the runners during race weekend.

    It wasn’t exactly a bargain, but the overall experience was still worth it.

    great location
    cozy room
    fun amenities

    mac rae was an excellent location for the marathon, just steps from the start and finish line. the deluxe king room was cozy, and we enjoyed karaoke as a fun extra. being so close to the beach made it even better.

    the hotel could use some updates.
