For a private beach i thought it was pretty weird to charge for use of the beach chairs, especially $10 a day. Especially when you pay an almost $10 daily resort fee. The laundry facilities were outside of the property, so not much security there. You also had to pay $1 for laundry detergent, $1.50 for the washing machine, and $2 for the dryer, all of which are outdated and the dryer requires you to run it twice for full loads. If you’re parking a car, there’s a fee for that too. And, it’s a shared parking garage with the next door hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms and bed were nice, ac was great, bathroom was clean, and the every other day housekeeping was nice. When you’re walking through the hallway you can hear people in their rooms, but we never heard anyone while in our room. No smoking on the balcony and you had to walk to the end of the parking garage for a smoking session. Only cable on the TV as well, but maybe I am just use to the streaming freedom at AirBnBs. The elevator was a bit sketchy for such a new building. I think for the price compared to other places near here the quality was good. I would stay here again in the future, we aren’t too picky. We slept good, had a nice pool, private beach access, and had a nice cool room each day.

Loved the roll in shower. ! Loved the beach tho very tiny. Loved the pool & restaurant. People/staff & in restaurant were personable & helpful. I thank you for that. Sofa had blood on arm, one seat cushion was nasty, whole sofa need cleaning. Ugh! Bathroom wall had brown yuck running down it on left side going in. Wish maid service had been explained a bit more. Patio had French fries , orange slices & other food & a bazillion ants on door threshold. I sprayed my Lysol on some of the ants. I called front desk to vacuum patio & they did get -some -of food up. Not sure I would return.

Fantastic! Hotel was perfectly located on a beautiful beach, rooms were very clean, beds were comfortable, staff was friendly, pool was clean. The area seemed very safe too. Only negative was the price per night for parking and the narrow parking spots, but there was always was available spots to park. Every local hotel charged that same price for parking. I’m hoping to come back next summer too.
