Top Cockroach Bay Preserve State Park Hotel Reviews

Mangrove Point Townhome

10/10 Excellent

"It was a wonderful property, only three things were of concern when we got there. 1: we had a really hard time confirming and understanding how the door lock worked. Maybe a little note on the inside of the house to help confirm that we are locking it correctly. 2: A curtain or door covering on the inside of the front door would also have been nice. A little uncomfortable walking around and the glass door had no real covering. 3: The bathroom fans were extremely loud, maybe splitting the switch to divide the light from the fan might help. These are only things that we found, not to be critical but to be hopefully a help. Beautiful property thank you so much. We really enjoyed it."
