Great views but for a deluxe cottage it was disappointing, very dirty the carpets need a good clean and looked like the shower head was missing , windows were filthy so that ruined the views , the electricals were amazing , spliced and taped how it passed code is amazing , didn’t bother to complain as it was only to sleep in ,,but doubt would stay again as for the cost you could get a clean place elsewhere !

Yes and No!

The views were amazing, the property was quiet. We stayed in the two bedroom cabin. Not luxurious—if that is what you are after. We had two small children under the ages of 2 1/2. The doors do not lock from the inside so we had to barricade the door with one of the living room chairs. Not a kid-friendly place, not beach-convenient. But if you need a quick get-away and some peace & quiet with great views and like a bit of a campy feel, this is the place for you! Just don’t bring the kids!

It’s an older hotel but the staff kept is clean. It has a great view of the beach and the ocean and isn’t that far from many stores, restaurants and the casino.
Our view of the beach and ocean from the window in our room.

The first day upon arrival our keys wouldn't work. Staff had to hit the door hard with her shoulder to get it to open. Several times we had to go get staff to come help us get in, we were told the maintenance would come fix it. He looked at it and said he would be back to fix it and never came back that day. The next day he said a lock smith was coming never happened. There was someone else's garbage on top the refrigerator, and last there was black mold in the window frame above the twin bed.
