Overall decent hotel, worth the price.
Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

Room wasn’t the cleanest, booked a double queen kitchenette but got a whirlpool room. Did not ask to change because we were exhausted.

It was nice. Just no beach access very basic little pricey for how basic it is basic
Pros:

Close to the beach 🏖️. We thought we were not informed when we made our reservations that they were gonna be some kind of a music festival. There in our beach access was blocked. We had porta potties to view.

Cons:

I did not like that. We were not informed of a music festival, closing down the beach in front of the hotel our view was porta potties and we had to walk a mile down to get access to the beach.

Pros:

ocean facing rooms were a bit dated but kept up and clean. I liked the hard floors. Bigger t.v.'s would be the only gripe.

Cons:

small tv

Breathing, Beach views with love tub, lol
Pros:

Upon arrival to the Schooner we were greated by the friendliest staff! Check-in was quick! Our room was amazing, clean and beds were comfortable! We may or may not have clogged the toilet, I called for help and they came immediately 🤪! They offed an amazing recommendation for pizza Beach Bella(wowsers), then I couldn't figure out the TV -they came right up and showed me (these people are so patient, lol)

Jet tub was cool, not too powerful but cool! Waking up to the sunset was amazing.
The only thing we didn't enjoy was the flies 😩 but that is just mother nature can't blame the Schooner!
We were just passing through on our road trip and this was one of the kids favorites!!

Ps if you like thrifting we found CHKD a local thrift that has amazing buys 👍

Cons:

Nothing - it was amazing
