Nice location for a short stay

The resort is an older property and there are some signs of wear, but it has been well maintained overall. Inside, our unit was comfortable and clean. There was a large dead roach outside our door in the corridor. It was never removed. The restaurant was great for breakfast. We did not eat other meals there so I can’t comment on lunch or dinner. The staff was very friendly and one of the waitstaff went out of his way to find me teabags. That made my morning.

It’s a very convenient place to stay. You can easily walk to the beach! The only thing is the rooms need major upgrades. The bed have dips in the middle, the shower heads need more water pressure. It’s hard to wash hair and get sand off with as weak shower head. The bathroom walls need to be wiped down from hair flyways and just overall dirty spots that need to be cleaned from others touching. TVs need to be mounted correctly as they are not straight on the walls. We didn’t get daily room clean. Did see the policy for room cleaning. Overall this is a place for beach convenience!

We absolutely love this property – the location is perfect, it’s very quiet, and it has a beautiful pool and beach. The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and go out of their way to help with anything you need. We come back to this resort every time because it truly is one of the best places for a vacation. The only downside we’ve experienced was with room 613. We stayed there twice and found the stove old and rusty, the kitchen sink leaking from both the top and bottom, and the white dining table sticky, even after multiple attempts to clean it with disinfecting wipes. Aside from that, everything else is wonderful. I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
