Don't stay here
The unit was right off the busy road. You could hear the traffic and radio of the cars going by. The parking space was right in front of unit and there was only a few feet to the edge of the road. The tile had damage in the bedroom and bath. There was a big gap in an exterior door in bathroom. The security code to the gate to get on the property is the same as the address. How secure is that!! We did not stay. The management would not refund the rental and Hotels.com did not do anything for us.

Hi Morgan, we are sorry to hear about your experience. We have investigated the unit fully and don't see any signs of roaches. There are plenty of varieties of bugs in Florida, but for that reason we treat for pests on a recommended schedule of once every several months and on an as needed basis.

Disappointing
The rooms need to be updated. There was some work done but there is more to be done. The one air conditioner was not enough to cool the entire unit and between the noise of the air conditioner competing with the traffic outside it was difficult to get to sleep. The unit was very clean and organized with everything needed. The tv had many channels but mostly old shows. The beach was a 5 minute walk and beautiful, clean, quiet and relaxing. We were just disappointed.

It’s older but clean. It was a great option for low cost. Our room was #4 and was fine for the money. The other couple we traveled with had Suite #1 and the road noise was very loud. They changed to another room #7 and the bed was very noisy almost like a hide-a-bed couch. But the common area was clean and our room and bed was very comfortable. I would stay here again if I got #4 again.

Cute
It was a cute little place. Love the courtyard. Couple of things though, other than one hool on the wall, thwre was really no place we could unpack an put out clothes, second there were a few times we saw bugs crwling in the bathroom and livingbroom and third, and this was my biggest turn iff, it didnt look lime the bathrrom sink was wiped clean before we got there. The faucet had what looked like dried toothpaste stains. I had the clean it myself, which prompted me to clean the whole bathroom before we used it, just in case. Also, in the shower there was hair on the floor and not hair from your head.

Would stay again
Booked last minute and would definitely stay again. Parking is challenging the way the road is situated, but that's not the fault of the property. Shower had some leftover shower gel in it, so I'd recommend they mention it to their cleaners but otherwise it was a good stay!
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023
Response from Kristin at Cabanas on Oct 10, 2023
Hi, we are so happy you will come back to see us! We will share the feedback with our cleaners on the gel. The angle of the road can be slightly difficult at times to see the traffic, but thankfully the speed limit is very low, so it makes it still safe to pull out.

Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023
Response from Kristin at Cabanas on Sep 28, 2023
Hi Matthew, When you arrived early to the property, you spoke with the cleaner and she finished up while you were there with her. You stayed the full day and night and we didn't receive a complaint until you were checking out. Upon investigating this complaint, we found none of such issues. On a recent regulatory visit with the health department, we passed with flying colors as well, as we always keep the standard of cleaning high. For future guests to be aware of, the rooms are thoroughly cleaned between guests and often cleaned 3-6 times a week due to turnovers. Our laundry is also sent out to be professionally laundered. We follow all hotel safety standards.

Clean and cozy
It is a great little place with so much character. Our airline changed our flight to early in the am. I received and email that check in was 4pm and another email with a check in at 3pm or whenever room is ready. So of course we were there early. Walked to have breakfast. When we got back the cleaning lady was there. She asked what room we were staying in and started cleaning it. Which was much appreciated. We put our luggage in the room and planned to just go to the beach. My husband called to inform mgt that one of our beach chairs were broke. I guess that caused a huge fiascos. Received a call from I believe Barbara. Asking who let us in the room and that we should be charged for checking in early and the room hadn’t been inspected so basically it’s unclear when the chair had been broke. Then she called again stating we shewed off the maintenance guy that was there to fix the headboard. He was not shewed off. I would like to discuss this further with someone. This women was so rude and spoke to me like I was a child. She was so unwelcoming.I was in tears at this point. The the hurricane hit. Luckily the owner and our housekeeper came earlier that morning to discuss evacuating. He even offered a home for us to stay in. Our housekeeper drove us to another hotel. She was amazing!Didnt get notice from mgt until we were already evacuated. We always support local and not big chains. We would definitely stay there again because of the kindness of Sheila(housekeeper) and Scott!!

Hi Julia,We are glad you had a great stay overall. After speaking with our team and housekeepers, management was informed that your check-in took place at 11am, after being told that we would let you know when the room was ready but that it was not available for check-in yet. We received a call from our housekeeper letting us know that someone was in the room and she thought it was the prior guest, however, realized that you checked into the room without authorization prior to it being cleaned. Our cleaning and maintenance staff do take great pride in keeping our rooms in great cleanliness and condition, so we inspect all rooms prior to check-in. In this case, our housekeeper had to ask you to work around your belongings to try to clean the room and when our maintenance staff showed up to make a scheduled repair, you informed them you did not need it repaired. Since all this took place before your authorized check-in time, we also did not have an opportunity to inspect the beach equipment. When you called to inform us it was broken, we let you know that our staff was already offsite and we would bring you a chair in the morning. I understand this was not to your satisfaction, but we had no way of being able to properly inspect the room due to your unauthorized check-in 4 hours early. In regards to the hurricane evacuation, we spoke to you over the phone and let you know the hotel was closing due to a mandatory evacuation. When you told us you had nowhere to go, we offered the idea of hotels inland and also provided a list of shelters. We were surprised to find that you still had not left when the owner showed up to close up the property, but we were happy to help you find a place to go and help you get there. We would like to reiterate, that we always work hard to make accomodations and a wonderful experience for our guests and have processes in place to ensure guest readiness at the time of check-in.

There were 4 of us staying here and it was perfect. Our room was small but we had no problem making it work for our stay. Less space than a hotel but better than any other place I have stayed. Quiet/Calm area for the most part. The cabanas outside are a nice place to sit and relax or read a book. Within walking distance from the beach and 5 minutes from Johns Pass. Any questions we had were answered fast. Very clean. Looks cute. If I ever come to the area again I will stay here! We loved everything about our stay. I will for sure be sharing this awesome place with family and friends!

Cozy Overnight Getaway
Very cozy for two. Loved the open courtyard to relax with a breeze from the storm coming in. Great location to beach, food, shopping by foot or car. Bed was comfy, though the headboard could have been secured a bit better as it hit the wall if you moved (we were concerned for next door, but heard no complaints). Overall it was perfect for overnight, and a brief getaway. On our list to return!!!

not worth the money
No one at the office but door open. Place has no pool and room is like a small hotel room. The bathroom is a one person either for sink or shower. Ground are nice. Stayed at another place on the beach almost across the street from here for a lot less money and a bigger apartment with living room, bedroom and full kitchen with a beach view and walk directly to the beach,. This was a waste of money for what you get. Glad we only stayed one night and no private parking just on the space in front of the place on the street.

Hi William,We glad you enjoyed the grounds and the beach during your time here. As advertised in our listing, we do not have a front desk that is staffed, as with only 11 rooms, it is not necessary to operate. We are, however, available by phone at all times or onsite to clean and help during the morning/midday. In terms of the rooms, we do have small rooms like what you rented and we also have one bedroom suites. The pictures on this site accurately reflect the rooms and bathrooms. We have extensively compared pricing with other hotels like ours right by the beach with no pool, and our pricing is very competitive. It is a great place that is a 2 min walk to the beach, but for a great value price.
