Had a great time here. Towels were clean everyday, coffee was available at the bar at our convenience, check in was simple as well as the door lock, happy with our decision to stay here, This is our 2nd time here and we will be back again.

We went for a one night stay and had a great time.
I loved the vibe of this place! It's such a unique building to stay in. Our cottage could use some updates but everything was clean and comfy so I'm really not going to complain. Other than the loud people next to us I'd stay there again.
Nice island atmosphere laid back great and simple process and with tiki hut bar and taco trailer was great food and laid back. The rate is good for the area. There was some traffic noise at night but it was ok. Will stay there next time I am in the area.

Room was clean, staff were welcoming, landscaping was nice
Very cozy and clean place, very safe area, and across the street from shopping and groceries. 5 minutes drive to
beautiful Sombrero Beach. Will stay there again, if available, the next time we travel to the area.
It was everything that we expected. It was our 15 year anniversary and we wanted something cozy snd intimate! It added a little more warmth that the shower was outside!!!
What a great place to stay! Close to everything and they have their own bar and taco truck! Music is live every Tuesday and Friday from 6-9. We stayed in teal cabin and loved it!
