As always, enjoyed our visit. Love the proximity to the beach and the free kayak and paddleboard rentals. Pool area is nice. The only thing I would suggest is doing a better job sweeping up the sand plus maintaining the walkways. I realize it's a beach property but still when you walk in your room after you check in and the floor is covered with sand, it's a little gross. Otherwise, we always enjoy staying at this property.
