It’s a great place to stay! The only issues we had were parking is very limited. We had two rooms and only one car. It was a challenge finding parking some days. The other turn off was the beach chairs are $25/day. Kind of steep when you are paying a resort fee. We ran to Walmart and bought some cheap chairs we used all week and left behind. It was cheaper than renting.

Stayed here 6 times Twice this year Only complaint I have, and this has happened about three times, on weekends there seemed to be locals coming in with parties of about 20 in 2 rooms . They seemed to visit and hold birthday parties Lots of loud music and noise and pool was unaccesable to people staying there due to the partiers. This would go on till about midnight I should have said something to the staff but I am sure they were aware. They had to be . Parking restrictions need to be monitored more closely

Loved the direct beach access. Loved the courtyard area around the pool. It was very quaint. Dislike the towel service arrangement. Pool towel service should be available by the pool everyday in a little kiosk area. The parking is a severe issue and because of limited space, it is nearly impossible for you to run out and pick anything up out of fear because there will be no spots upon return. The young ladies at the front desk area were friendly, courteous and accomodating.

Nice location. Great views from ocean front room. "Ocean view" (partial view) is NOT the same as an "ocean front" (full view) room so make sure you know what you're getting. I had to pay extra to get an "ocean front" room during check-in. Good kitchen but lacked some small basics; coffee maker but NO coffee, no paper towels, etc... Convenient access to waterfront sports. Quiet guests. No elevators. A little worn out building, furniture, and AC; property needs some updating but the ocean front views makes you forget that a little. Friendly staff.
