The Management was great. Looking forward to possibly staying there in the future. They were able to answer all of my questions, assist with what was needed and always friendly. The room was one of the updated beachfront two queen beds room. It was spacious and had a great view. Access to the beach was amazing for the warmer hours of the day. Everything was within walking distance of the hotel so we didn't have to worry about parking downtown.

We found hair all over the bathroom and on the beds in the room. Toilet paper roll was empty. Room had a musty smell when we first arrived. Room has not been updated in a very long time. Bed felt like i was sleeping on a piece of plywood. The room was also never cleaned during our stay.

One of the ladies in the office was sooo super nice and friendly. She even let us check in early. The other lady was not so friendly. I wouldn't say she was rotten l, just not very friendly. I do wish however that we would have gotten a bottom room. It was a lot of stairs to climb on top of the activities we did. Either way was fine though. Looks like remodeled/updated rooms.

Nice property with a good view of the beach. Room was very nice and freshly remodeled. The only issues I had were my tv did not work at all. And the splash pad/ waterpark area was closed. Overall we had a nice stay at the property.

When we arrived at 2:30 we asked if we could get an early check-in, but our room wasn't cleaned yet which was fine because check in isn't until 4. So in the mean time we parked and went to check out the water. The water was clean and the beach was nice. There were some broken chairs and towels laying around but there were also chairs that were fine. Some people had brought their own chairs from home. My son who is nine loved skipping stones, looking for rocks and chasing some seagulls while we waited til four o'clock to get to check in. At 4 we went to the front desk to check in. Our room still wasnt ready, so instead of getting pissed we just spent more time in the water(only up to our knees because we had on shorts.) At 4:40 we went back and our rooms were ready.
