The property had all of the basic necessities I needed for a fun beach weekend! I had no problem with my parking spaces. The rooms were well appointed with everything I needed. The property is clean and the area is safe. Quite little niche tucked away off the main strip. It felt very private on this beach. Walkable to all the fun and restaurants!

The room was not as nice as shown on the web site. Bathroom door needed planing. It had to be shut hard to close thus waking people up when going to bathroom at night. TV cable was lousy at best. Fan on AC had one low speed. No blackout curtains. Had doors adjacent to other rooms and thus could hear people in the adjacent rooms. Book at own risk.

Breakfast was very good. Elevator inoperative. Hauling luggage up and down 2 flights of stairs unacceptable. Had to walk thru 6 buildings to get to the ice machine. Towels skimpy and shabby. Pillows old and worn. No room service. Only had 2 hangers in closet. Thin walls, noisy. Same for noise from upstairs. Phone did not work .

According to property details, there was an elevator being a senior citizen that would be helpful. When we got to the end, they stated that the elevator was out of service and would be repaired by the busy season, which I’m assuming was Memorial Day weekend also in the details, they mentioned a tiki bar poolside. This was also closed for the season. The only issue that we had was having to carry our bags up two flights of stairs. Other than that we were very pleased with Islander Inn and we will be returning next year, hopefully the elevator will be working.
