So awesome we stayed an extra night. The hotel was undergoing some construction so we got a great rate. Pool and beach which is minutes away was ideal for children. Kids bingo at 3:30 with prizes which the children loved. The surrounding area is just immense. Everything you could want in a sea side town. Proper classy place we will be back

Direct access to the beach was great. Bike rental to ride on the beach and around town was very convenient. Didn't like the construction going on. There were limited access to the beach once other events take place. The property will be great once construction is completed.

The property is old and is going through renovations, The entire time at the pool, a loud jack hammer was continuously pounding away. I understand that renovations are needed but let your guests know and reduce the amount of the stay. Been coming here for 20 years.

The resort was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The construction project did not hinder our vacation at all. My only recommendation would be that the rooms need microwaves. There is no way to heat up the delicious leftovers from the resort’s restaurants which is a waste of scrumptious food. We hope to return next year.
