Our brand new truck was broken into along with 3 others. No one contacted us to let us know. The police had been called but again we were not notified. The hotel next door I was told had vehicles broken into as well. We just woke up went to the truck and found the window tapped up.

Rooms were okay, the outdoor area was very nice. In the middle of construction so there was a lot going on, and the rooms only have exterior entrances. They didn’t have any connecting rooms for us like we asked for on our reservation. Didn’t feel safe with kids in a different room without the interior door open.

This property is honestly a joke. We werent even there for FOUR HOURS before we found multiple live cockroaches in our room, and all over our luggage and bed actually. On the third floor of the hotel. We went immediately to the front desk who offered a new room but ultimately brushed us off. I have now reached out three times as she promised a refund for the other nights we canceled our stay for, minus the one night we “stayed” (we left because we were so disgusted) and began a drive back to Minnesota we hadn’t planned to make for another 4 days. Ultimately so disappointed in the lack of customer service and horrible communication from this property. Do better.

Great place to have a mini vaca with all the amenities offered on location, easy access to bar, pool, across the street to the beach, restaurant on site and others close by. Over all great accommodations and the new room renovations was very nice and fresh. Hope provided the best customer service upon checkin. She was informative, helpful and made everything easy & quick would totally recommended.
