A beach retreat.It was a very, very nice hotel. The beach was a different story. It's all broken up seashells. So if you go, make sure you wear sandals!!

I liked how close it was to the beach, restaurants and the boating life. All down to earth. Interiors could really use an update, kitchen was well equipped though.

Had to have our room moved a couple of times, but management was accommodating. They also addressed a couple of other issues that we had. Location on the gulf is excellent. They are still recovering from last year’s hurricane, but they are getting close.

Staff was friendly and helpful. The studio room we had was beautiful and clean and had everything we needed, sink, stove, fridge, coffee maker, etc. The walk from the room to the gorgeous beach was less than 2 minutes. The property is well kept and clean and in the perfect location. We will be back for years to come and so happy we chose to stay here!

A little bit of Old Florida
IA wonderful old Florida hotel right on the beach. The room was spacious and had everything for a pleasant stay. A comfortable bed, a nice kitchen and a large shower, parking in front and a very short stroll to the beach made for a great stay.

This property is in a prime location!! It is in an area that has quick access to anything you need, but the traffic is not overwhelming and busy!
The facilities are nice! The pool is clean and was not busy while we visited. The room was clean and had everything we would need!

Very close to Beach. This unit the view of the beach was actually block by foliage. I just had to walk about 30 ft. to the beach. No Shampoo/Conditioner provided is really the only thing that I can say as a negative. I would stay again.

Our room was very close to the beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Not much
Counter space for toiletries and groceries. But we made do. We also had to ask for towels each day. Wash clothes and hand towels were not available
one day because the linen truck hasn’t arrived.

A great couples beach efficiency. Couldn’t have ask for better. Woke up Beach morning with my feet in the sand. Before going to bed each night. Got to sit outside underneath the sky, with my feet in the sand still. Definitely recommend this place.
