We stayed at the Hampton Inn and Suites Oceanfront, a newly renovated hotel, just seven minutes’ drive from the airport and - true to its name – situated right on the ocean and the beach. Again: the warm Southern welcome at the front desk, which was continued whenever we met with the staff. I highly recommend this hotel: central position, large rooms, spectacular views and hearty breakfasts, together with heated pools, lazy rivers and a brand new up-scale spa. There’s lots for kids to do too, including a Kids Club in summer and a Ropes Course opening up later this year across the road. Here’s the hotel website: www.hamptoninnoceanfront.com
