Air conditioners are fully of mold, blowing directly into your face in bed. I refused to let me family stay there. Checked out as fast as I checked in. Still have not received a refund from Expedia or the property for the resort and pet fee.

Retro trailer

We stayed in the single wide retro trailer. Definitely added a unique experience. Old trailer in much need of updates but the views, property, and staff make up for what the trailer lacks.

I felt like an employee having to get fresh towels, cleaning the room and bathroom, delivering dirty towels, asking and finding staff for coffee packets, and toiletries. Noisy room with very early traffic noise, and an air conditioning unit in the bedroom closet that was absolutely filthy with dust and as loud as the traffic. No staff on the premises in the evening. If you needed help you had to call. No phone in the room, so cell phone needed to be charged for any emergency.

Awesome spot! Beautiful location!

Wonderful ocean front spot! Clean, comfortable bed and linens, great balcony and view, friendly staff! Loved the paddle boards and heated pool. Grounds have hammocks, games and loungers on the beach. Incredible sunrise and sunset, good location and easy to access. Can’t wait to stay again!

Not worth it

Not what I expected. Expensive for a run-down motel pretending to be a three-star hotel with “resort” amenities. Everything felt like it was done with minimal effort. Staff was helpful enough but definitely, again, with minimal effort. Do not recommend.
