We had a nice stay. I would have liked to check out the tiki bar right there at the motel but we were too tired. The pool looked really nice but it was too cold out to get in. The room was clean. It is older but nice. The bed was comfortable. The area still has a lot of hurricane damage. They are getting it cleaned up, it just takes time.

My flight was cancelled and I contacted the resort to switch to another night. The resort staff indicated that Expedia needed to intervene. Expedia tried to facilitate my request but the resort management put the almighty dollar ahead of good business ethics and refused my request. Never again!!
