Stayed here last April for the 3rd year in a row. Great beach, great value, great service. Hallway carpets redone to spruce things up. Great food at front restaurant, excellent breakfast. Pool salt water and very clean. Also has a good beach bar More

Good location. Friendly staff. Plenty of places close by and easy to get to. We will go back again. May 11-13, 2012 More
