Perfect place for a birthday getaway!
From the moment being parked on the parking lot to checking in lavender inn was a welcoming place. Trusting this place to be a perfect summer vacation getaway and birthday celebration and it most definitely was! Offering complimentary breakfast, wine, bike rentals and a champagne bottle in the room I felt spoiled and at home. Other guests were friendly and staff were very helpful and polite. Restaurant, stores and the ocean pier were very close walking distance and no Uber was needed. I definitely recommend lavender inn and appreciate this place for making my summer birthday vacation special. Thank you!

Just ok
It was fine just didn’t live up to the reviews online! When we got there the bathroom sink was backed up and full of black water. Maintenance got right on it and fixed it he was great. I guess it just the we expected better after the reviews. Overall our stay was fine but the room was old and it showed it
