Still rebuilding after the storm. Rooms could use a deep cleaning and a little maintenance. Good price for the rooms. The on-site restaurant was very good. Check out the Tiki Bar for a specialty drink and more water views.

Nice two level unit right by the water. Comfortable, clean, spacious, and a convenient location. Our only issue was the patio slide door wouldn't lock and we couldn't get the TV to change channels. Other than that - it was quiet and a great stay.

Older property, but clean and maintained. Really liked the way it faced the water from the back and had a seating area out back. Watched people swim with the Manatees. The restaurant/bar was good, affordable and the waitress was very good.
