We had stayed at this property several years ago before the remodel and it was fine then, but it is amazing now! The retro design, the pool, the funky fun colors! All of it is just so inviting for a fun beach vacation. Very clean, very helpful friendly staff, and very convenient to lots of fun things to do.
