The resort definitely shows its age, but the oceanview balcony was absolutely stunning. The pool was great, and the restaurant's drink package was a fantastic deal too!

POSITION is everything for this place. Literally ON the beach! The hotel itself is too old and too poorly maintained. The staff IS nice and trying to compensate, but there's only so much that they can do... We stayed for 4 nights that included the Labor Day weekend. On the third day our ground floor room flooded from the ceiling, the water was coming down fast and cascaded over my husband's suitcase and laptop. Thankfully we were in the room and asked for help as it was happening, but it took a while... Eventually we got moved to a front beach room but the beach day itself was wasted. We asked for an extra night to compensate, but all we got was $40 worth of lunch on the premises. The second room where we spent the last 2 nights had a nice view of the beach but also... red roaches!! We did our best to enjoy the beach, but all in all it was NOT a worry-free vacation, to say the least.
