Oceanfront Hotels

If you wish to reserve a hotel on the oceanfront, please do so as soon as possible as the hotel rates for those rooms are considerably more expensive – especially during peak season – which coincides with the dates of our family reunion.
We were unable to block rooms on the oceanfront as that is not permitted during peak season.
