Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Housekeeping Staff were told on the 2nd day that our curtains were really dirty with finger prints and dirt where people had opened them. Nothing was done. They advertised housekeeping service every 3 days and we told Housekeeping on day 2 we wanted this service. We were there 7 days and housekeeping never cleaned. In fact, after we requested this, they avoided speaking or looking at us as they were doing daily cleaning for room turnaround. All housekeepers had a cell phone to their ear every time they were seen.

We loved the location. The grounds are beautiful. The pool is just the right size. The beach was small and cozy, with wildlife and options to kayak or paddleboat. Staff was so friendly and kind. I wish we could've stayed longer.

For the price a great place to stay. The beds were comfortable and the rooms very clean. It is an older hotel but most in this area are. The rooms have been updated…..floors and bathrooms. The pool and grounds were also very nice. Hammocks picnic tables, and shaded places to sit and relax. We would definitely stay here again.

It was very far from the point for the price. Room is small and no food options. A family stayed above us and had their small children running across the room and balcony till about 3am at one point one of the adults screamed outside to get up and party. They also rented bath towels for the pool for 20$ each which i thought was crazy. Other than that it was good

Not like reviews I read or photos on their website. Room was clean but dated and had issues. Bathroom was tiny (not like photo portrayed). Also could not shut the bathroom door all the way because it rubbed against the floor and showed evidence this was an ongoing problem. Bathroom cabinet doors would not shut either and had roaches living in it. Wi-Fi even though we could log in was basically useless because it was so weak. Front door had two locks, a door knob lock and a dead bolt. However, the key we were given only worked in the door knob lock. Pool was nice, but beach wasn’t much of a beach…
