I was pleasantly surprised by this property! It’s wholly welcoming with practical amenities. We came relatively unprepared to spend time at the beach, but was really grateful to be able to borrow beach chairs and umbrellas. Also jumped on the cruiser bike to explore the island. Facility is clean, reasonably priced, and warm. 100% will be back!
