The check in time is a little late (3 to 4pm), but they will let you go on the beach to wait, which was lovely. There's also a beach front restaurant right next door. Wonderful stay, friendly staff!

Hidden gem

This is a great place if you want a quiet place to sit on a private beach to enjoy. There are several things to do not far away and plenty of restaurants in a short drive or if you like to walk.

When we arrived to check in the office/lobby was locked, no employee on premises. Call went straight to voicemail, left message and as of 18 hours later no return call. Went to Holiday Inn and got a room
