Great place to stay with amazing staff!
Staff is super friendly & even gave us a key card to use the laundry room after checkout. This was much appreciated as our wet towels from the beach would've made our ride home pretty smelly. THANK YOU so much for making sure our drive back home wasn't musty. 😜 The room, breakfast, & pool were amazing! Staff went above & beyond and were extremely courteous!
