6.8/10

The Chateau By The Sea has a charming beach vibe, with pleasant access to the beautiful sand and surf. The view from the oceanfront rooms is stunning, and the beds were comfortable. However, the dated interiors and the lack of elevators can pose challenges, especially for those with mobility issues. Service was lacking at times, and I experienced some maintenance issues during my stay, which detracted from the overall experience.

Rooms

7.0

The oceanfront rooms offered a lovely view and were spacious, including a kitchen area, which was convenient. However, the interior felt dated.

Service

5.0

I found the service to be inconsistent; assistance with maintenance was slow, and the front desk was unhelpful at times.

Location
