Reserva esto si You want the 'Motel Makeover' Instagram experience with frosé by the pool and don't mind paying a premium for the aesthetic.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- The viral 'Motel Makeover' retro-chic design is genuinely stunning
- Heydays restaurant serves incredible lobster rolls and smash burgers poolside
- Heated saltwater pool with a 'tropical resort' vibe in the middle of Ontario
Resumen rápido: It's a beautifully curated photo op that costs as much as a luxury hotel but still has thin motel walls and no elevator.
Reseñado por @aprilvalvano: I grabbed my girls for a road trip to Sauble Beach and this place was the highlight. From lounging in the retro pool to devouring seafood at Heydays, every moment felt curated just for us. The hammock on the balcony was my favorite spot to unwind.
