Great, but couldn’t see out of some windows. Pool was awesome. Hot tub only at 86 degrees. Asked to borrow some wine glasses, but not allowed? Bed comfortable and loved the fireplace. Great to have a fridge and microwave.

Couple getaway

Had a wonderful time and enjoyed our time here! Next time will have to add an extra day or two for a nice getaway.. Service was great from the front desk to the Maintenance. Property is very nice and a very short distance across the beach … Enjoyed the boardwalk and the views are amazing and the Sunset on one night .. Will be staying again sometime soon .. Highly recommend…

View was great but the patio was full of mud and leaves. The whole patio appeared to not have been cleaned for a while. The patio door wouldn’t lock and only had a flimsy bar to keep the door secure. The fireplace which is the only heat source was broke. Told the front desk about the door and fireplace. Someone came to fix the fireplace but it would not shutoff completely. This hotel is in a dead zone from one end of the street to the end of it, for cell phone service. You can use the hotel WiFi when you’re at the hotel but can’t enjoy the beach with no service. Front desk was having issues with there computers so check-in was a little hectic.

Outdated and worn down

Property is in great location with good views, but it is very outdated and way past the need for update. Even worse, poor service and dirty/lack of maintenance and care. Sad to see the property in this condition

We had the most beautiful room that included a little sitting area with a fireplace. This property is on Moonstone Beach so it’s a great place to walk or run or just hang out…we loved this property and will certainly be back!
