Surprising Gem

Great low key and well done property. Feels pretty new throughout. Pool area is great - convenience of towel, food and drink service, set right next to the beach and flanked by tall palms, hammocks and the beach a few steps out. Super relaxing. The restaurant on property is solid. Some small things would make it even better like -have sunscreen for sale or in a pump at the pool for guests, the walls are uber thin so you may hear the guests next to you - could hear the person next door snoring - ha….but honestly all really great. Will be back.

The property was pretty and well kept. The bed in the suite was shot and worn. The 4 nights we stayed we hardly slept because of the mattress. It was very soft with little support.

We liked everything except that the people above us were stompers when they walked and they walked consistently. The staff couldn't move us because the property was full. Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep. Enjoyed everything else about the property such as pool, food, tiki bar and convenience to the beach.

Disliked: Room comfort

Misleading pictures and overly priced

I paid for a room that looked upgraded and the bathroom as well. I paid a lot of money compared to most hotels in the East Coast of Florida. The bathroom was so old and dingy that we left the next morning. We were thinking of staying an extra day but once we saw the bathroom we decided to leave.
