Way over priced! $300 a night is insane for a room with a terrible view. A/C didn’t keep me cool while sleeping. There never seems to be anyone attending the front desk. For $300 I expect a fresh hot breakfast included, but not here, it’s $10. Stupid! Toilet sits ridiculously close to the floor and what is with the country music blaring in the hallway? Got an idea, how about peace and quiet. I could hear the music from the bathroom, oh and the music sucked for what it’s worth.

This hotel was clean, inside and outside the property. We got a balcony room over looking the bay. The beach area was nice, plenty of beach chairs, the pool area was beautifully done although we did not test the pool or hot tub water. We were here for only one night during our light house tour but would definitely stay again if ever in the area. You can buy firewood and they have fire rings by the beach area so you can have a fire which I really thought was a great idea.

The beach was used by outsiders, they were loud and disruptive, we pay resort fees and that’s what you get and a extra fee to use my credit card, this was not told to me when we checked in not till I checked out and ask for a receipt did I notice the fee, this did wake me up for the next hotel I use
