Romantic Interest

Soak in the bubbling spa pool. Romance packages are offered along with luxurious linens, robes and towels all nestled in a quaint complex with winding brick paths and bamboo fencing.

Historic Interest

The Pink House at 201 Ocean Avenue was built around 1916. A weathered plaque found in the house states that the land was originally sold in 1922. Around 1925, the house was bought by Walter Brown. A short time later, the family purchased the cypress house across the street from the casino that they named Port d’Hiver or, Winterport.
