Annual Beach trip.
Stay was wonderful as always. Clean, comfortable. The internet/wifi didn’t work, but it’s the beach who really spends that much time in the room. Ac unit was brand new but pre set to 72, which isn’t that cold for us. But we survived the “hot” room and the tropical storm.

Door to bathroom would not shut maintenance came by was their 10 minutes and said you just got to kick the bottom in to shut. Shower did not look like it was cleaned paper thin walls dog would not stop barking next to us usually a good time here. Just got a bad room staff was very nice also refrigerator smelt like dead bait upon opening it wasn’t working so instead of taking it out and replacing it they just shut it hoping we would not open. It smelt so bad we had to leave for a couple hours

Parking! It was hard to find a parking the first night we were there. Maybe you should consider parking passes for the room #. It makes more sense that we park where we can see our vechicle. I think people will tend to have visitors not stay there.

Really awesome place!
A real hidden gem! Very good for families with children as they have a playground in a huge sand box and a really great pool area. Plus multiple grills to have a nice evening hanging out with the family. They definitely take pride in the place, they keep up very well with cleanliness inside and out. Would definitely recommend.
