Not worth it.

Expectations not met. Run down room. Only one Tesla charger and doesn’t even work. Door in room was kicked in and barely locked. Poolside room was facing a staircase and not even the pool. Breakfast buffet was not breakfast-had chicken skewers and hot dogs. Not worth the price would’ve paid more at a different place for better amenities that were actually good.

Uzma

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
My stay at Beachside Inn was disappointing due to repeated power outages—three times during my visit. The elevator was out of service, which made getting around very inconvenient. Additionally, the front desk staff was unresponsive and not helpful in addressing these issues. On a positive note, the breakfast options were good, but overall, the experience was frustrating. I would not recommend staying here unless these issues are resolved.
