Amazing honeymoon trip for 6 nights!
Pros:

The location was amazing! So close to the beach and many activities nearby. The pool was also a huge added bonus. The owners are really nice, personable, and professional.

Cons:

It is being updated so a few things were dated but overall very clean and nice. You also can’t beat the rate so close to the beach and the staff take such good care of you.

Budget friendly no wifi
Pros:

I liked that I could self check in

Cons:

I was told there was wifi and when I tried reaching out to the host about it I was told the new wifi password but when I told the host there was no such wifi I never heard back and still no response. Not the best service or way to treat a paying guest.

A Solid But Not Perfect qBudget Choice
Pros:

It was chosen with location and budget in mind. The location was great, we were able to leave vehicle a walk to beach, stores and whataburger. The Jacuzzi tub was very nice and used often.

Cons:

The appliances were not in best working order. Hair dryer and microwave didn't work. Television only had limited Roku service, which was not the best. Air Conditioner unit was loud.
