Although the property is lacking some "hotel features" the price, location, and staff made it totally worth it. Right on a private beach. We went off season and got a huge apt.

Staff was very accommodating. Unfortunately our first room’s ceiling started leaking during a bad storm. That room was updated. The second room that put us in was spacious, the bed was very comfy, the view from the window was beautiful, but the room needed updating.

Oct 20, 2025

Our room had perfect view of the ocean. The beach bar was actually open despite the chill in the air. The room we stayed in does need some maintenance. The base of one lamp was held together with (no lie)…..scotch tape. Had difficulty opening one of the blinds do to a missing rod. A hook on the bathroom door would be useful but the room was clean and had fresh towels each day.
