There were a few small issues with the room, but we were only there 3 nights so didn’t let it bother us. A little expensive, but the location with beach access helps offset the cost. Friendly staff. Everytime we book, the booking sites all say 1 room or 2 rooms left, but when we arrive it seems like most of the rooms are empty!!!! Don’t know why. That was the case last year also… overall decent and would go back.

Best family vacation place!

Had a terrific family vacation. Very accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure our stay was pleasant and we were comfortable. Even changed out our mattress on the bed for us when the bed was too hard. Staff so friendly, food was good at a decent price and we love the bar ❤️ we will definitely be returning.

The A/C sounded like it was going to fall off the wall all night. The bathroom towels were old, stained at ratty like cleaning rags. The employees were beautiful, pleasant , sweet & hard-working people. Food was very mediocre and expensive. The rooms needed some eating utensils and a microwave. A clock in the room would have been very nice. The view on the beach was excellent . They should give guests #1 dibs on the pickleball courts. NOT the locals hogging all the courts in the cool mornings. Just wrong and frustrating not to be able to play pickleball as advertised for the price paid to stay at the hotel!!!!

We had a great time at this beautiful property. Only one thing, the pool deck was not swept our entire weeks stay. This caused uncomfortable walking as tree seeds were on the deck. Other than that it was amazing.
