Inside the room looked fairly new/clean but the carpet felt sticky on bare feet. The door was old and gross. The property felt outdated. The location is great and the views were very nice though.

The view and the amenities are absolutely beautiful. The fire pits & games on the yard were fabulous. Definitely made our stay more fun. The staff was friendly and we can't wait to go back. The fact that it's dog friendly makes our life and stay complete.

Really enjoyed our stay. The staff and the property is absolutely beautiful! The rooms could use a few upgrades like better wi-fi, tv’s, in room guest amenities, but you cannot beat the views, proximity to the beach, and that they are dog friendly! All in all everything was delightful.
Lovely view of the grounds.

Excellent Ocean View. Property had some quirks: NO Microwave ovens in the rooms, or on the property (We asked). Microwave was needed for heat pack to treat chronic medical condition. NO A/C unit in room. Not really needed if there was a way to get fresh air into the room at night. However, the only way to get ventilation into the main part of the room was the one large sliding door, which had no screen. So at night the sliding door had to be closed, so no way to get the fresh ocean breeze inside. We were quite warm overnight.
