Very outdated hotel right off the ocean, very sad. AC was under another balcony so the water drops from upstairs was tapping ours keeping us up our whole stay. Food was expensive but wasn’t bad. I would spend a little more and stay somewhere else. Kinda looked like a retirement home.

The rooms were clean, but definitely in need of remodel. CONS The escutcheon plate for the shower arm wasn’t attached to the wall. The bathroom vent doesn’t vent very well. The toilet paper dispenser is behind you, when seated on the toilet. The bathroom light is an unusual edge-lit, LED style, and it was 50/50 on whether they would flicker. The bathroom faucet was a cheap laminate style. The “stainless steel” veneer was potmarked with holes from the hard water. The wallpaper and carpet could use a refresh. The sliding patio door was a bear to operate, requiring a strong pull to slam it shut. The patio door lock didn’t have any tension in it. After “locking” the door, you could simply pull it open again and the latch would give way. The staff were generally indifferent. I encountered maybe a dozen on my stay, and only two greeted me (one was the desk clerk at check-in) PROS The grounds are lovely! I enjoyed the landscaping throughout the resort. The rescued seal habitat brings me great peace to see them enjoying their lives, sunbathing on the rocks. The duck pond is extensive, featuring several winding streams that loop to it, as well as 3 decks for viewing. The shuffleboard pavilion was awesome! I wish I had time to play a round. My 1st grader loved the playground, especially with its rock climbing elements. It was too cold during my stay to get into the water, but the private beach and pool looked inviting and well-maintained. Go for the resort, not the rooms!

The room was clean and very comfortable. There was no face towels or wash clothes in the room when I arrived but that was taken care of with one phone call. I also found left over food under the cabinet next to the toaster. Other than that everything was fine with the room. Parking gets hectic at night but the view definitely makes up for it. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would choose this hotel again in the future.
