The property was clean and was well equipped. We were able to cook and prepare meals with no issue. It was right around the corner from the beach and we were very close to grocery stores.

Staff are amazing but the place needs a serious upgrade. Several things need to be replaced/upgraded. But it is in a great location. Very close to everything. Especially with a golfcart.
