Previous visitors and harsh weather have destroyed the AC and carpet is a nightmare. Just do tile!!! Evening fake tile or linoleum would work. Keep a spare remote on hand or window unit for when the AC fails. Staff will text and pretend to be responsive and then nothing will get fixed. Ask to switch rooms? Fat chance. Pool is clean, right on a beautiful beach. Restaurants near by. Beds are extremely uncomfortable. Bathrooms weee clean, sheets were clean, surfaces clean. Carpet was disgustingly wet and smells of urine and burns to be barefoot on. Why carpet on a beach? No idea. Want to watch TV? The previous guests stole the remote while on meth so it’s only Big Bang theory and wrestling on at full volume. Can only turn on the tv and turn off by unplugging it. There is a wall AC that barely works. It’s supplemented by a broke AC that blows hot air? Sleep in a pool of sweat! Enjoy.

Terrible beds and outdated rooms, outlets and cable TV did not work. A paint job of a room is not renovation!!! They provide linens- in a bag at the door- you make up the room yourself. They do not clean but leave you a broom. Room was not ready- we had to come back an hour later. And they leave a tip envelope for house- keeping that does not exist. Stay away from this one !!!!

Do Better

The positive: it was ocean front and a short walk into the beach. The pool was clean and well maintained. The negatives: the bed had huge indentions and sank when sitting on it. You were sleeping in a hole. The pillows were good. The main a/c was broken and they had installed a window unit and you couldn’t shut the blinds because you’d block the air so everyone that walked by could see you. It is a pet friendly place and I knew that and I’m allergic to dogs. Usually I don’t have a problem because they clean the rooms. Our room had tons of dog hair everywhere. You couldn’t sit anything down without it getting on it. I think the only thing the cleaning person did was change the sheets and put out clean towels before our stay. There’s no way they swept. There was a broom in the rooms and we swept and got up enough dog hair to make a wig. This is not acceptable. They need to make sure they clean the rooms better. It made me very sick.

Location for our vacation was nice. However, service stinks. No fresh linens even after I asked early evening. Carpet was full of sand, which then got in bedding. tub did not drain fast enough to keep up with shower resulting in ankle deep bath.
