The only good thing about the property is that there is a kitchen in a room. We stayed as a family with 2 kids for 3 nights. The room was not cleaned even once, despite me asking for it. Everything is very old. It is an overpriced motel, should not be called a resort.

We were not impressed that the waterslide was not working. Apparently they only run the waterslide from 1 pm to 4pm. Check in is 4 pm, checkout 11 am. Seems like a scam. Also no coffee supplied. They supply a coffee maker but no supplies for it. I was told at the office we could get coffee at the office in the morning if we want. Had to pay for the coffee. Overall not a great experience. Inside the rooms was clean which was important to us.

Great location but very dated and run down. Imagine being across from the water but with only a view of the parking lot and permanent trailer pads.

We were misled by their webpage. It said there was a pool but after we signed-in they told us the pool wasn't in operation. When we got in the room the floors were dirty and the linen was dirty as well. The armoire was filled with dirty linen too (maybe from the previous guest). Also the beds were messy. My wife and I decided not to sleep there at all and left. I do not recommend that place to anyone. Why is it that Expedia, whom we mostly choose to book with isn't aware of that situation. We are really disappointed with that and wish we could get a refund.

Just okay
Very cramped in the room. Fridge was full of ice and needed to be defrosted badly. No coffee and office not open in the morning to get coffee even though there is a coffee maker in the room. No coffee shops open in the area until 8-9 am. No information at all about the area. No A/C and no screens on the windows. Comfy bed but not quiet. Campers very loud right behind our room. Ocean view and cheap for the area. Will not stay again.

The accommodations were comfortable and located across from the ocean. The suite would benefit from basic items like bags soap for hand washing (there were a pile of shampoo packets that we washed our hands with), Kleenex and salt and pepper in the kitchen would have been thoughtful and appreciated items.
