First of all, they gave away my king room w/sofa and private balcony/patio. When I arrived, they didn't mention anything but gave me a key to a double queen room w/out a sofa or balcony/patio. When I told them of their mistake and showed proof of booking the king, they said sorry but we don't have any king rooms left nor did they have any ocean view queen rooms, so I could stick with what they gave me or cancel my booking. They offered no discount for the lower quality room and when I asked for a discount, the manager said she couldn't give me one and to talk to my 3rd party booker. I said I would keep the room as nothing else was available Labor Day weekend and I just drove 4 hrs. I called Expedia and they contacted the property manager who only then offered us a 10% discount (she should have already offered that). So, they obviously aren't interested in having a repeat customer with such horrible customer service when they were at fault and then tried to keep the price the same for a much lower quality room than what I booked. Other than that, we enjoyed everything else about the property. It is right on the beach, although most rooms are "dune view" but an easy walking path to the beach. The indoor and outdoor pools were both nice and we especially enjoyed the indoor hot tub. Breakfast was also very good. We even got to play cornnhole. The beds were comfortable and it was mostly quiet except for one night when a loud party was happening at a property next door.

We enjoyed our stay and thought the room was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bathroom could have been a little larger in regards to where the toilet was but we really liked the walk in shower. I would also have liked better access to the beach because of my knees we were unable to walk to it.

Top notch beachfront hotel

This place is terrific. Great rooms, great service, great location. We had a room with balcony and ocean views and it was terrific. Great balcony. The beach access is easy and the two pools and hot tub are great to mix things up. Breakfast is not amazing but certainly good enough. Location is great. Few minor issues? Laundry room was lacking (only 1 set of machines and they are slow). The foot wash/ showers by the beach access had only a trickle of pressure. Pretty minor stuff. We had a blast here!
