Great shower, comfy bed and pillows...things that make or break a stay for me. An easy walk to a shop and the beach.
The heater in the bathroom didn't work, apart from that all good.

Well we have a low pressure shower at home. When on holiday it's nice to have a good shower. But this was very disappointing.

Questions about Balmoral Motel
What time is check-in and check-out at Balmoral Motel?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Balmoral Motel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Balmoral Motel?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Balmoral Motel have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Does Balmoral Motel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Balmoral Motel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Balmoral Motel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
