I would love to get a refund, at least a partial one! Let me just say, the pictures in no way matches the hotel. The place is dirty and run down. They had 3 window unit ACs that were placed into the walls. It was HOT the entire stay. There is no microwave, coffee maker, soap, TP. No comforter or blanket on the beds, just fitted and flat sheet. There were no towels at all. I called down to let the staff know and then had to walk down and pick them up myself. The room had not been cleaned, even though we were told we couldn't check in 30 mins early because they were still cleaning it. The door had previously been kicked in and hasn't very secured. The bathroom door was one of those folding shutter doors with no lock. Bathroom was filthy. Big dining table for 6 but the only thing in the kitchen was a makeshift counter top with a tiny sink and a beverage cooler and small mini frigde. No cups, no paper towels, no ice machine to get ice from. For 2 nights, I paid $405, I would not recommend anyone staying here. A staff member told us that the owner knows they get horrible reviews but they don't care. Was told this when we had to call down to get someone to come kill the ants crawling around on the counter top. I was so disappointed. Please stay anywhere else. The pool was cloudy and has fake grass mat all around it with trash everywhere and I'm sure so many germs in that fake turf. There were no cushions for large loungers they have. I'd give 0 stars if possible. Not as portray

Catfished

We felt very catfished by the lovely photos of this “resort.” The chairs by the pool were completely torn up and most didn’t even have cushions. The floors in the room were filthy, I needed to wear flip flops 24/7. The beds are just a sheet set, no blanket. We asked the front desk for a blanket and they gave us a mattress pad/cover. The bathroom was the dirtiest of all. The tv was maybe 32 inches and we didn’t have a remote. The pictures were very very deceiving. Also we had to wear bracelets to be on the property which we found weird for somewhere that didn’t resemble a resort in the slightest. No visitor hours or visitors allowed at all. The staff however was very friendly which was nice.

Terrible. We are from Tennessee and stayed here for 2 hours. Absolutely a nightmare. Needless to say the fire marshall and code enforcement paid them a visit. The owner lady was super nice but no blankets on the beds and apparently this happens to all guests, ant infestation, refrigerator broken and food spoiled, door wouldn’t close to lock, extension chords running through the floor because outlets didn’t work and sparks fly when you plug in phone, etc. and pool was green and unusable. No parking!!! Please be aware this is not just a hotel it’s a bar!!!! They also told me I would be refunded but then wouldn’t answer the request from Expedia! Luckily I was still in town and went to the office and videoed the owner and pleaded with her and she accepted the refund request immediately. Please note you will have to pressure them to receive a refund!!! I would submit pictures but it won’t let me!!!! No lights worked in our unit. It was the suite #143. Terrible!!!!!

I mean.. it serves its purpose I guess

We stayed here for 2 nights as our halfway mark home from a trip in the keys. Positives: staff is very nice & it’s right across the street from beach access so you get that closeness without paying beachfront prices. Negatives … it’s more of a rundown motel vibe and the other guests tracked with that. Drunk parents with screaming baybay kids in the pool all hours of the night, the room was absolutely disgusting. And there are no blankets. Like, they only make the beds with a fitted and flat sheet. Never seen that before. All the furniture at the pool is broken. It does have an outside shower to rinse off when you get back from the beach so that’s good. It definitely needs a deep clean though. There is not kitchen in the unit so I was very surprised to find a frying pan in the bathroom but the more I looked around, the less surprised I was. lol.
