Basic but adequate
For the price, this was a decent place. Beautiful grounds. Check-in given keys & map to the Turner Lodge. Should have been told about pool, church & service, dining facility, vending location, museum, any other amenities. No coffee in room, fridge was tiny w/ no freezer at all, mattress reasonably comfortable, very small TV. Worst thing was lack of insulation in building. We heard toilets flushing & sliding glass doors opening. Beautiful view from balcony & peaceful grounds. Convenient drive to town. Friendly staff, but they need to be trained to inform guests of what's available or give out a leaflet with info.

When I pulled up to this area, I was surprised it is a religious retreat area. I am fairly religious so no worries there -- I enjoyed the chimes on the hour and half hour and periodic hymns played by the bells -- but I did wonder if I went to the right place. But wowza! The front desk was terrific and, when I had an issue with the room in the middle of the night, I received swift and wonderful assistance. Great people, BEAUTIFUL campus to walk, and peaceful so one can relax and then hit the crowds of the beaches and shopping area for a nice balance. I will be going back!

Great price
The campus is in a great location. It is on the water and has a great path that walks along the water. Beautiful to watch at sunset. It is a short drive to anywhere you would like on the island. The rooms are simple but comfortable. They do need small coffee makers though. It would have been really nice to sit on the balcony and watch the Sunset. That was a little dissapointing but other than that I was pretty happy with my stay. The price was very reasonable.

Nice views from the room. Room is dated with no coffee pot. TV is small and has no HD channels. Ceiling in the room was missing paint in several spots and the lock on the bathroom door is broken. Front desk staff seemed annoyed that I was asking questions about where to get food on site. I was done with my shower by the time hot water started to flow from the shower head.
