The propetty This was very convenient and in a good location. Pretty views of the water and the rooms were nice. The problem we had was in the outdoor areas. There seem to be a bad odor especially nespecially near the bar.

Thank you for your feedback on the property. It's great to hear that you found the location convenient with pleasant views of the water, and that you enjoyed the nice rooms. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with the outdoor areas, particularly the odor near the bar. This is valuable information for the management to address and improve upon for future guests' experiences.

Check-in was quick, easy and pleasant. We were surprised to find our room recently renovated with fresh paint, new floors, modern bathroom and super comfy beds. Short walk to the Tiki Bar at the beach where you can play in the sand or sit in the sun or shade.

I don’t know how anyone had given this place 5 stars! It is not worth close to the money they charge & their customer service is horrible (there is none)! Had read rooms were updated only 2 months ago but our room had mold in the shower, filth on the door, old food or something stuck on the welcome book pages. The “private deck” they say you get is a shared deck. The waterfront rooms are “fishbowls” so everyone can look inside your room if you have your shade open. Boats can dock only steps outside your room so there is excessive noise & can obstruct your waterfront view. You can’t block out the noise turning tv on because there is no reception on tv in room. Oh, also, if you have allergies, know they have stray cats that greet you if you’re on the deck & they rub against you & come in your room if you’re on deck. Says office hours are 8 am - 9 pm although tried going at 8 pm & door was locked & employees were gone. Repeatedly tried to call (left messages) & email but no one would answer, return calls or reply.

Service was excellent. The water view blocked by docked boats and not private. Beach lounging as shown was not at all as we expected. The room was as shown.

They had the BEST piña coladas! The room was clean and quiet. The beach is very small and crowded. It was a good place to stay.
