Bring your own pillows

The room was great until we went to get in bed for the night. Two double beds each with only two pillows and they were in decorative quilted shams (grey in color and with a raised pattern) not white bleached and clean pillow cases. Called the desk and they had no other pillows. We checked out at 1 am and drove home. No refund no compensation no future stay offered at discount. Terrible customer service and who wants to sleep on hot quilted pillows that can’t be properly bleached in the wash process. None of their stock photos online have these pillows! All show 4 pillows per bed and in standard white pillow cases. False advertising if nothing else. $325 and couldn’t even handle the basics.

Just ok.

Construction noise early in the morning. No drinks and food at the pool. Weird. Staff chases you around the pool and beach telling what you can’t do which is odd when you’re a paying guest. The hospitality is less than average.

Had a great time with my teenage kids and & the beachfront location can't be beat. Only thing I'd think they could improve on is to have more information for guests about the other business (services/prices) on their property.
