Beautiful and intimate, 100% would recommend.
Pros:

We loved the property, we were in the unit in the back of the main property with its own private parking. It was like a mini apartment, very private and intimate. The location was perfect, as it’s right across the street from the beach.

Cons:

No complaints, we would definitely stay here again.

Pros:

Updated modern beach feeling rooms, quiet area and amazing location.

Cons:

Early morning talking outside of the room, no fan in washroom- was pretty steamy and could create mold. Sofa was rock hard and no bed side tables.

A Perfect Stay!
Pros:

It was our first but definitely not last time here! Our room was clean, comfortable and had so much coastal charm! We were in walking distance to a lot of restaurants which was nice and a 2 minute walk to the beach!!! The staff was very friendly and attentive! We loved that they had bikes and beach chairs available to use plus beach towels and a small cooler! This will definitely be our “ go to “ spot when visiting this area! 👏👏👏
I had a short video of the room but for some reason it wasn’t showing

Perfect Stay
Pros:

Beautiful rooms, modern and clean with great A/C. The location is perfect. Steps from the sand. They provide everything you need, parking, beach chairs, towels, cooler, ice, umbrellas, even sunscreen! The rooms were quiet, the wifi and tv's worked great and the staff, Tina, went above and beyond to make our stay great. It's a 5 minute walk to Paradise Grill on the beach which is fantastic and a 6 minute walk to all the other great restaurants and shops. And a 10 minute walk to the marina where there's fishing and a boat shuttle to shell island. Perfect stay!!

Cons:

The electricity went out for a quick moment and came right back on 3 or 4 times during the night. Not sure that was the hotels fault. Might have been weather or a power surge, but it quickly fixed itself.
