It was a quick getaway with my granddaughters!! We stayed in one of the condos. It was perfect being right on the beach!! Everyone was very nice. The only thing I will add is bring kitchen towels, and blankets for the bed(s). They did have 2 blankets but were thin. We enjoyed our stay and got to see pods of dolphins playing close to shore!

The bed was very comfortable, easy to find light switches etc. Saw dolphins off the balcony that overlooked the beach. Beautiful views, easy beach access. Hotel is definitely older, but maintained. I had only 2 complaints. First, the door to the outside was sick and took a considerable amount of finagling to get open, and although the whole wall was windows, only the door opened so we couldn't crack a window to listen to the water. The other complaint is finding a previous occupants dirty clothing smooshed under the couch pillows. That was pretty gross. Other than that, it was great! Less than a mile down the beach to the pier, a handful of restaurants nearby, lots more with the car. Hard to walk down the road since there are no side walks. But all in all, i would definitely stay again for the views.

Horrible vacation

I planned a nice family vacation for our anniversary. I wanted everything to be perfect for a surprise for my wife and it wasn’t. Our room did not have a working thermostat. The clerk offered to move us and I spent an hour getting into a new room, either it wasn’t really available, not the same size, and we even barged in on another visitors room. Thank God, the clerk went before me and I wasn’t killed and mistaken for a burglar. The ordeal was horrific. My wife and kids were waiting in a cold room the entire time. We later found that the room didn’t have all of the amenities as the first one, like cutlery and kitchen utensils. I’m unhappy with the stay.
