SCAM!! THE PROPERTY WAS SOLD! DONT BOOK!
SCAM!! Don't book!! We showed up to check in and we were promptly greeted by a security officer. The property was apparently sold at the beginning of February 2025. We drove four hours expecting to check in and instead was told that we couldn't be on the properry, didnt have a place to stay, and good luck on getting a refund.

Don't stay here unless you want to be ripped off
Upon arrival the place was under construction and closed down!!! I tried contacting owner but voicemail was full! On day of arrival I received a text with code for door, rules of property etc etc so nothing appeared "wrong" until we arrived at location and were met with security turning us away!!! SCAM shame on hotels com

Beautiful property. We actually got the chance to meet the new owners they are wonderful people. The property has been recently renovated so if you see reviews 6 to 8 months old I wouldn't put too much stock in those. The ocean view rooms are fantastic you are steps from the beach there's a pool if the ocean is not your thing. Very well equipped with lounge chairs umbrellas there's actually a pirate ship and a little play area for the kids with a splash pad while the adults relax at the pool with grills I might add so you can cook your own dinners. This place is amazing. We are already planning to go back for our anniversary trip in February..

This was a great value right on the beach. The view was great. We walked out right on the beach. The room was clean and plenty of room. The condos appeared to have a recent makeover, so everything was fresh and look nice. We will be back
