The property was perfect for our honeymoon. Our room was very nice and our view from our balcony was beautiful. The beach access and pool were top notch. We loved the Castaway Cafe. I have no complaints.

Our stay here was absolutely wonderful. It is not a luxurious spa experience, but it was a beautiful, clean, well-kept facility. The only maintenance need we saw was the roll out awnings on our patio were unusable - but having the patio was amazing. We would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing place. We stayed 10 days and staff, services, rooms and amenities were amazing. Staff is very nice, friendly, helpful and accommodating. Amenities even though a little bit on the older side but have everything you might need. Very close to the beach with beautiful territory. Walkable to whalers village and always available parking. An additional bonus was complimentary coffee and tea in the morning and unlimited filtered water. Thank you for great experience and making our vacation so wonderful!
