Pros:

I loved the location. I loved the comfortable beds & the balcony was my favorite

Cons:

The tiki bar is very dead. There was no music..no concerts. The pool & hot tub closes WAY too early & at that time they close beach access.
The vending machines took my $ never gave me a drink.

Pros:

Good enough if you’re trying to save money. Great accommodations though, we got there early and were able to check in a few hours early. We enjoyed the pool while we waited for our room.

Cons:

A little outdated and bathrooms kind of yucky. Black mold spots on floor.

Great location but for the money pool and hot tub should be open till 10
Pros:

Right on the beach! Can sit on your balcony and enjoy sunrise, sun set or just listen to the ocean.

Cons:

They close the pool and hot tub at 8:30. For the money spent seems they would have the pool open until at least 10. Who wants to get in a hot tub when the sun is out.
