More pluses than minuses.
This place is a little retro, but its location with a comfortable pool and cabanas on the beach is ideal. A new Starbucks and grocery store across the street, along with multiple nearby dining options add to its appeal. Staff is friendly and accommodating. We have been here several times and will strongly consider returning. Cleanliness of the property is an issue, though, as common areas such as stairways and corridors are not well maintained. Also, poolside crowd is normally well-behaved, but it can get rowdy at times, with no visible management intervention to discourage unruly behavior.

5th time staying here- I love it because it’s nothing huge or busy, and has easy access to the beach. I loved staying on the first level poolside as well this year! Yes, the hotel could definitely use some updating with decor, so that is the only negative (the interior color scheme and carpet in particular).

Housekeeping knocked on our door, we advised we didn't need anything, however, we left and came back to our room it was apparent they had come into our room while we were gone as the TV was on which was not us. It was apparent it was staff as neither one of us left it on plus it was on a different channel. Was kind of worrisome that staff was in our room without us bein there after we said we didn't need anything. There really isn't any activities to do when the weather is poor.

Zero customer service. Prepaid room. Check in time is 4pm, still no room available at 6pm. No apology, no explanation other than "we're busy". I left on a prepaid room. I wouldn't go back if they paid me.
