From the check-in with Roxy at the front desk all the way through to check out, our experience was fantastic! The rocking chairs on the balcony are always a hit with us. But we love the fireplace in the room and of course, the great view.

The room was great as always, the view was great! But we had people below us who had 5 dogs, little kids and were loud talkers. The dogs barked, whimpered and whined the kids were loud and some of the people were outside below us talking so loud we could here them with the sliding door closed. This was going on at 0600AM on Sunday morning. Other than that we LOVED being there and we WILL be back!!

This place has become an annual tradition for us. Though the resort itself is somewhat dated, It’s exceptionally clean and offers wonderful amenities. Nothing beats opening your slider door to the beautiful ocean not to mention the fire place and free upon request wood is absolutely amazing. The price and location cannot be beat.
