Lovely place but resort fee??
Was surprised I had to pay the resort fee separately and it wasn’t included in the price we paid for the room through hotels.com. Those fees made the cost of the hotel seem much higher than we expected. While a nice location and historical hotel. The price is high for what you get. I’d expect a lot more amenities for paying guests considering you don’t need to stay at the hotel to use the same “amenities” with the exception of the outdoor pool which in the Fall isn’t an option.

Easy beach access. Fabulous reception staff, especially Donna (3-11 pm). Wonderful housekeeping staff. Big Pig Tavern outside dining options are great (except neither restaurant is open 2-5 pm, cafe with pre-packaged sandwiches and on-premises baked goods is).
