Our room was very clean and kept that way each day. The hot breakfast was good and changed each day. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful. The location was great since we wanted to explore all of the area, and it was right in the middle. Beach chairs were available to sit on the beach, which had direct access. There was a good choice of nearby restaurants.

Walking distance to Cahoun’s store and Jeanette’s Pier. 5 minutes from golf and outlet mall. Loved our stay just off peak season late May.

Everything was very clean & nice. Breakfast was awesome! Wine & cheese every afternoon & cookies every night are nice extra touches. Pool area was clean & provided Pool towels a big plus. Room service great. The only thing we were disappointed in was the beach access. It was a rather steep hill down to beach. We were told it changes due to high tides and wind etc. which no one can control. We had a great trip and would love to stay there again.

Always loved staying here but If you want a high floor you may want to show up early. They promised via phone that we could have a high floor in their high-end room, but upon check-in we were on the 1st floor. Will likely stay somewhere else next time.

Perfectly perched on a gorgeous beach with plenty of fun activities and eateries surrounding the hotel. Spacious rooms with great amenities, a lovely breakfast and fun perks like wine and cheese and cookies for guests. Ample parking, beach chairs and laundry services make it a perfect worry free getaway.
