Loved this property. Very quaint with a lot of older people which was nice. Room was great, exactly what we needed for the 2 nights we were there. The owners were also great, he printed my cruise luggage tags for me to because I forgot which was amazing! Overall, perfect place for a nice quiet vacation to just relax.

Room rip off do not trust photos.(Misrepresented)

When we arrived the person on duty spoke little English. Shown to our room we found it nothing like the webpage photos this dark uninviting,crushed and ripped bedding, broken blinds, no curtains and the lights did not work thus having to leave a crappy side lamp. We cleaned the place with wipes and they were filthy. We decided this was too much and tried speaking with Hotels.com chat to say what the place was like nothing like the photos. Whilst speaking with Hotels.com my partner was outside trying to get the attention of the housekeeper my partner moved to speak to me and a huge palm branch crashed to the floor if she had been there a couple of seconds more she would had been badly injured. This was the last straw we had to find somewhere else having paid $333.22 for 2 nights. Hotels.com tried to contact the owner to no avail and they now say we are unable to be refunded for this room. DO NOT USE Best Florida Resort as it is the pits and rather dangerous around the walkways. Lack of maintenance supposed to be 24hr service but no one would take a call to explain.
