"Nice family trip to the beach. The condo was spacious and the primary bedroom was fantastic. The other two bedrooms were small, but were still accommodating. The property is very well maintained. There’s paths to walk on for a nature walk and the beach has some hard sand that makes long walks on the beach very easy to do. There were 6 of us that went and there was plenty of space. Great stay!"

### Inn At Pasatiempo

6/10 Okay

"Having not stayed here before, I could only rely on pics of the rooms and property on the website, which were impressive. Hotel was located on or near the golf course with beautiful grassy surroundings where weddings are held. Website pics showed remodeled rooms some with fireplace and looking spacious. The room we had was very clean, remodeled, beds were extremely comfortable and the price was highly discounted and affordable. Restaurant was excellent, reasonable and the food was very good. The downside was although our room remodeled, it was very small, nothing special or inviting us to want to come back. Bathroom was so small the door could not open and close if someone was in it. The tub was old & patched, needed to be replaced. It had no stopper or shower curtain although they did repair that. I mentioned to the employee at checkout how disappointed we were and wanted to know if they actually had rooms like those advertised on the website. She said only 4\. All the others were like the one we stayed in. Although I would like to stay in one of the four better rooms, we agreed this was not a good experience and most likely would not stay again."
