I like the convenience to the beach. While room was clean and updated, room was drafty. Needed shower curtain as half wall did not work well in keeping water from going on floor. Also, need additional towel racks.

We were forgotten about and ended up with late check in, even though we were there at 2 30. Our tvs didn't work, and we were sent a technician to help that was unable to get any of them in the cottage to work. Compared to the photos, everything in the cottage was just dirty and worn down. Staff was very friendly though.

We stayed for a family trip. Room was exactly as pictured. They are doing some remodeling so parking is limiting. Due to train containers in parking lot. Bathroom is small and no where to hang wet swimsuits. Upon checking in I was early by a few hours and was told they will text when room is ready. However, never received a text. Next morning I went to take a shower but no hot water. I contacted the front desk by text. Due to no direct line to front desk. After a few minutes, I was told maintenance will be working on it. Approximately 30 minutes later I received another text that hit will be back on in 15 minutes. By this time I took a cold shower. I’m not a happy camper.

Booked this for my relatives. Location is undergoing remodeling so large storage containers in parking lot. Rooms and bathrooms were nice. Waaaay overpriced. Nice view of ocean from parking lot and upper deck. Would not stay at again at these prices. Called and told the front desk we would arrive between 10-11 pm. They didn't tell me I'd have to check in at property next door. Had to run over there so my relatives who were exhausted wouldn't be freezing while getting their room keys. I wish they would have told us. Office staff nice and helpful. Sorry but not worth over $850 for 2 nights

Loved the cottage. I wish that it would have been in better condition and clean. Kitchen floor, furniture and carpet were very dirty. I made sure to keep my shoes on. The service and location were great. The place needs a good cleaning and remodel.
