We stayed for 4 nights- shopping and restaurants close by. Beach is just seconds away - room was clean. Staff are super friendly - other guests were quiet. Access to beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels is a huge plus!

Well, it was just close to the places where all my friends were staying. So it was very convenient in that sense. Also, it was very close to the shopping area and restaurants and it was very clean and nice. I’m definitely going back there.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The staff was great! The room was comfortable and the pool area nice. Close enough to walk to dinner and beach. The downside was our room was not updated like the pictures on Expedia showed. There was just a sink, toilet, and very old tub/shower in the bathroom. No vanity to put any toiletries and not outlets in bathroom. Made it vey difficult for my wife to get ready.

Cleaning/maintenance staff were Great! A . Office/manager not so much...pretty rude and unaccomodating. We asked a few questions and were greeted w/glares and gruff answers. Everyone has a bad day but seemed to be a pattern. Not all are tryi g to pull one over...
