It’s a very convenient place to stay. You can easily walk to the beach! The only thing is the rooms need major upgrades. The bed have dips in the middle, the shower heads need more water pressure. It’s hard to wash hair and get sand off with as weak shower head. The bathroom walls need to be wiped down from hair flyways and just overall dirty spots that need to be cleaned from others touching. TVs need to be mounted correctly as they are not straight on the walls. We didn’t get daily room clean. Did see the policy for room cleaning. Overall this is a place for beach convenience!

Very disappointed

The room that was booked had several deficiencies. The microwave didn’t work, nor did the TV in the bedroom. The floors were filthy. They had not been swept or mopped. The kitchen cabinets had old food stained on them. There were several lights burnt out in both the living/dining space as well as the bathrooms and bedroom. Overall, if I had spent more time in the room it would have been very unpleasant. Also, the overall cleanliness of the building itself could have been better especially since there have been renovations recently. I had previously only heard nice things about the resort however, after my experience I would not recommend staying there.

This is advertised as a resort, and it is comparable to a two star hotel. No valet, no bell service, limited dining days, a Tiki bar of Igloo ice chests and folding tables. Not at all as the brochures and ads hyped. Very disappointed!

Pool is way too small for the amount of people staying. Our first room was horrible! Thank goodness the resort found us other accommodations. The resort itself could use a bit of touch up. If real flowers can’t be planted just use greenery instead of plastic flowers. My first impression was it was unclean. Thrown together decor. We left a day early. Not sure I’d recommend to a friend. No dishcloths. Had to use washcloths to was my dishes. Take pride in what they have!

Absolutely lovely in every way possible! The beach was breath-taking. The view of the beach and ocean from the balcony was amazing. The bed was comfy (not that I slept much...trying to soak in all the beach/ocean/sunrise/sand I could in 2 days). The water was hot. The kitchenette was cute and well-stocked with utensils, cups, plates, etc. The decor was adorable, relaxing and inviting. The only downside we encountered involved the on-site restaurant. They closed at 4 p.m. and Monday morning, when ordering breakfast, they had no biscuits, and we were the first order they took. And then it was closed the entire day the next day. But, that could have been for cleaning, maintenance, short-staffing...a number of things. It was just a bummer because I was looking forward to dining there on multiple occasions.
