The room was spotless, steps to the beach, plenty to do, Tiki Bar was awesome, staff so helpful. WiFi barely worked, but other than that I would def come again. No frills, but great place to lay your head if you want to just do the beach.
This was our second visit. Fun both times. We stayed on the 3rd floor king studio, no kitchen, partial view. Awesome view of the the Gulf from the balcony. Lots of things to do there for adults and kids, beautiful attached beach!

Everything was amazing. Check in staff was wonderful. Everyone was so nice great vibe and we are definitely coming back !!!
Nice stay for the price and plenty to entertain the whole family on the property. Only downsides are the blankets are thin (but the bed is comfy) and there are no ice machines.

Clean room, but the property could use some TLC. All staff members were polite and courteous.
Our room had a good view. If your going with kids, it's a good place. We went for our anniversary week and couldn't sleep for all the noise. Just a bad week to go since some were on spring break.
The tiki bar was closed. We had a great view. Rooms were clean. Seems a remodel has been done since I was there last. Love the wood tile floors and tile shower!!
Room was AMAZING! SPOTLESS! The absolute best view ever! We were in awe. The balcony was as long as the condo! Just stunning. It's definitely our new go to. No doubt about it.
