We had a walkout beach view. The porch was disgustingly dirty. Duck poop all over as well as bugs and webs. You can tell no one had swept or cleaned it. Several times when our AC kicked on, it smelled very strong of skunk/marijuana. Quite disappointing.

The staff were great and helpful. The on-site restaurant/bar was nice, but there were also tons of other options nearby. We went at the end of summer, so we didn't swim, but the beach was clean, and it was still nice to sit in the sun loungers to watch the waves.
