Disliked: Staff & service
Front desk check was a half hour ordeal with a rude clerk, Nik. There was a fire alarm at 10:30pm one night set off by an employee "playing" with a new alarm system and the power went off the next night so no TV, A/C, lights. And they offered to take off the $40 resort fee, period with they little apology. The staff is not well trained.

Beautiful property that was close to the beach. My wife and I stayed 2 nights here with our 2 dogs. We took our dogs to the beach both days and enjoyed walking along it. The beach there is clean and not very crowded. This is a resort that we would like to come back and enjoy on our own, without our dogs. We didn’t get to experience much of the resort since we had our dogs.
