The resort is very dated. Our particular unit was dingy- the main bathroom was normally cleaned, the bed was uncomfortable, and the paint was chipping in places. The ocean front view was beautiful, and it was quiet- but the place needs a major refresher. We won’t stay there again.

Initially the resort is dated and appears older. When checking in staff was pleasant. But our room turned out to have been uncleaned (sand in bed, no amenities including toilet paper or towels), broken lock on balcony door, drafty room with whistling sound from balcony door, broken remote. After complaining to the front desk, and having to repeat the issue to 3 separate staff members because no one communicated our issues to the next staff members (with no apologies), they gave us a new room, which was much better than the first, which lead us to believe they put us in the TRASH ROOM. The remainder of our stay was fine.

Love the property! Nice and affordable getaway this time of the year!! The restaurant food was terrific! However, I did notice some mole and water smell in the shower. The water smell could be from the recent storm.

Nice place. Beautiful views
Beautiful place, area, and views! Restaurant was lacking as were options in the immediate area, but Wilmington had nice choices, and of course the room gad a kitchen. Biggest issue was I left items behind and immediately (w/in 30 min of checking out) contacted them. Responses were slow or not at all. I did eventually get my items back but one of a few messages that went ignored was my request for shipping/tracking info, eta. Never heard back. But again, I did receive my items. Just, being ignored is never good and very unprofessional. Front desk staff was great. Restaurant staff too, the food just wasn’t. Grandkids didn’t even like it. Only went there once for dinner and never went back. Tried once for breakfast but they opened too late (8 or 9).

Excellently run facility. Liked everything about the stay except... The TV(s) were impossible to work with. Multiple remotes and minimal channel selection made viewing a bummer. Even that negative couldn't overshadow all the other superlatives.
