Restaurant was closed while website stated it was open until 9pm. No other options at that time of evening. Resort was moving to off season status and should reduce their room rates. Doors and windows need replacing and plumbing upgrades.

I would say this property was "very rustic" and the photos on Expedia are not reflective of the experience.

Everything was lovely. We enjoyed our stay. The only thing in our room was the tap in the kitchenette would not stop running.

Not a resort at all. More like a motel next to the beach. Needs and update.

This place is a dump. Room was filthy and smelly.
Recommendation :
Pray, Pray, Pray for a category 5 hurricane; collect the insurance; then plan for a different vocation.

Room we stayed in while obviously had a renovation, most things didnt work properly. Lights very dark, gad to us phone lights to help see, sink drainage extremely slow, shower water tap installed incorrectly. Waste a lot of 'hot' water which was really cold water on hot water setting. Beach setting was lovely though.

Generally clean. Bathroom ceiling paint flaking and had the appearance of mold. Bathroom sink drained slowly. Buffet breakfast below average. Better to go out for breakfast. Dining room average for dinner.
