Loved the cabin look. The room was very comfy. It had a sofa, table and chair to eat or work at. Refrigerator and microwave came in handy. Plenty of drawers to put your clothes in. The staff were very very friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had a wonderful stay.

Adjoining cottages, yet quiet. Extremely helpful, pleasant and welcoming management. Clean room, good bedding (sheets), sufficient towels that are not like sandpaper. Furnishings are very modest but sufficient. Windows can be opened allowing for fresh ocean air; good screens. King size bed medium firm; extra blankets provided. Bathroom had a jetted tub (though we did not use it) and overhead shower that provided good water pressure. Refer and m/w provided, a small circular table with two chairs provided setting for snack/coffee. Housekeeping staff is excellent, always with a smile. Sufficient parking onsite without having to park on the street. Short 10 minute walk to the beach and excellent resturants in the area. A bit pricey for what you get but if cleanliness and service is your priority, this could be a good choice for you. Tip the housekeepers...they deserve it! …

A very nice job of refurbishing an older inn. Very clean. We would return for sure. The manager was very nice and helpful, as were the cleaning staff. Comfortable bed, fridge and microwave, shower all good. A couple of concerns. First not enough horizontal spaces, by that I mean the room was fairly bare, microwave perched on top of fridge, should have had some sort of furniture or shelving with space to put your things. Two almost bare walls. Same in bathroom, one small cubby, with pedestal sink, could have used a counter. Second, on our day and our third day, when we returned our key cards did not work, and had to be reprogrammed. They were nice about it, and prompt, but still an unnecessary issue. Fix a couple things and you would have a 5* rating.

Rishi makes you feel right at home. He is gracious and welcoming. If you have a question or concern, he is on it. He happily uncovered the firepit and the patio furniture for us one spring evening so we could enjoy our conversation under the stars. We had chairs and benches outside between our two rooms so we sat there with our morning coffee and chit-chatted with the neighbors as they walked past on their way to breakfast. Sunset Inn is not a luxury resort but it's simple, clean and friendly stopover for the night. I'd go back just to experience Rishi's hospitality again.
