Check In
Checking in is a nightmare. Code for room was not sent until 6:00 pm!! Check in is at 4:00, so you’re stuck outside waiting for code. Wristbands for pool and beach access where not available until 2 days after check in. Also, how come it doesn’t mention parking is 30 CASH only?

Don’t waste your time or money
Under new management***Trust me on this, don’t waste your time with this property management. Was only there for four days and wasted two of them trying to get bracelets to be legally on property. They are a nightmare do deal with. Spoke to 7 different people and no one knew what they were talking about or what was going on. I am a single mother of three children who just wanted to have a relaxing getaway and the stay was anything but that. So disappointing. Room was not clean. Sand in our beds upon arrival. Finally got a code for my room two days into trip.Tj at the front desk felt so horrible for what we were going through she finally gave us wrist bands even though the property management still hadn’t purchased them two days into stay. Beware!
