We love being able to stay in a walkout unit and be on the beach. There was some sand left in the shower but other than that everything else was very clean. Staff at the office was super nice and helpful.

Absolutely loved the location and the easy walk to the beach. The room was ok, nothing fancy….could use some updating but it served its purpose. I will be back as long as I’m on the 1st floor. The proximity to the beach makes the rest of it unimportant.

We mostly enjoyed our stay. The bathroom needs new flooring, as the tile in our room was loose. There was also a little bit of mold in the bathroom, as well as the ceiling in the main room. It did look like management is making upgrades. Can’t wait to see the changes next year. We absolutely loved the proximity to the beach, as well as the tiki bar and pool/patio.

My boyfriend and I stayed 4/14-4/17/25. We had the two room king suite. We were there after spring break so there weren’t many people there which was our plan. The views are incredible. Pool was wonderful. Trish at the Tiki bar on site makes a fabulous margarita. They did forget to put towels and a remote in our room, but Jun at the office fixed that immediately. It is an old hotel and furnishings are very basic, but the pool, beach access and beach viewing seating is fantastic. Will definitely be back.
