This is quite the gem! I stayed in the king whirlpool room. It was very spacious, well equipped and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The whirlpool is fantastic but I felt self conscious of the noise from the jets. Everything on the property was well cared for and the staff was friendly. And a stone's throw to the beach. I'll be a repeat guest!

We were here for my birthday and King Tides. The room was spotless, new carpet, new furniture, great jacuzzi. Bathroom fan motor needs replaced. It would growl like an angry dog until it finally took off. We love staying here. Cant wait until our next adventure so we can stay here again.
