The Tiki bar and grill was great. Pool area clean and plenty of seating. Negatives: TV had very limited channels, there was no one available in the lobby during the hours of 5 pm and 8 am. Parking was difficult when there was entertainment in the Tiki Bar.

Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Room was clean, linens fresh, water hot. It had a refrigerator . I was disappointed it did not have a microwave, so you can not reheat your leftovers. They close office at 8pm. So, I suggest you make sure you have enough towels and whatever your needs are before 8 pm. Not in walking distance to stores or gas station.

This was my 3rd time here!! 4th of July in the pool was a great party! Good people!! Absolutely LOVE this place and will be back again!! Meghan was so nice and very helpful! And Jen is the best waitress ever, so friendly and she actually remembered me 🤗 My only complaint was TV selection, we only got 3 channels and they weren’t good ones! Couldn’t even get Netflix or anything 😢

James, we sent you a message via Expedia informing you of the time our lobby closed as well as the lockbox code where your room keys were. If you failed to check on Expedia that is not our fault. We hope you will give us another chance and visit us in the future. Thank you!
