It was like we had our own condo at the beach. Lots of room and a beautiful setting. Easy walk to 2 great restaurants. Sitting on the patio was such a pleasure. We got to swim in the pool and the ocean. We were there when it was hot so our only complaint was the fan in the living room needed to be replaced. The bedrooms were cool with fans. Definitely we will stay there again.

We spent three nights at the resort over the long weekend. The condo was well stocked with everything you may need. The condo was spacious! TV was small and not compatible for streaming. The office had dvd’s to borrow. The pool and grounds are well kept. Bunny rabbits running around for your enjoyment! Family oriented place. The staff were friendly and non intrusive.

The property was beautiful right on the ocean with unbeatable views. Unfortunately, the beds in both bedrooms were extremely uncomfortable and made for a sleepless night. We were disappointed that for the price point, we were also asked to take out our own garbage and recycling.
