We love visiting this property! It's been a few years since we stayed, mostly due to Covid, and higher prices, but you didn't disappoint us! Still a beautiful and relaxing place to stay. We personally like the Bay Side rooms, with the large docks just outside your room. Being pet friendly was a plus for us, as well as the swimming pool and that view!! The beach is directly across the street, as are restaurants.l

Rooms were very adequate with full kitchen and queen bed and pull out sleeping couch for guests. The resort was on the intercoastal waterway with docks,boat slips and nice tiki huts with shade and picnic tables. Nice view out back with a constant breeze blowing.Also was pet friendly with doggy areas.

Should not be called “resort”

Right by a Main Street, very cheap soap. Old towels. Toilet not flushing , unable to regulate the shower temperature, the turning knob was loose, the fan from ac ran all night . Ac units on the roof , would vibrate the whole house. At $300 per night one expect different conditions.

We loved our stay! We are walking wanderers so this spot was very centralized and easy walk in either direction to any bar or restaurant, or just a short drive to anything 2 miles north or south. It was great to have access to the bigger pool at the plaza and beach access with our wristbands. It was a great room and perfect for us and we would definitely stay here again!
