Great beach front property. The room was clean but it was a bit odd to have a bathtub in the tv area (I think only rooms that say "spa" have this?) Staff were friendly & courteous - very helpful in shipping back some items that we forgot (thank you!) Great for families, lots of chairs available on the beach. Water is very clear, lots to do in the area.

Stayed 1 night in the King walkout. Room was very clean with a great view of the bay. Loved the shower head. For breakfast, they have you check a form with the grab and go selections as well as what time to bring it to your door. That was a nice touch for the grab and go style breakfast included. Beach was amazing. Location was great, close to everything. I'd recommend.
