10/10 Excellent

"This was a very nice place and very well stocked with kitchen items and beach towels. We went with 6 couples and everyone had their own suite and bathroom. We loved the pool area and it was a super close walk to the beach. The only issues we found were with the ovens and griddle top but maintenance came quickly to resolve the issues. We only wish there had been more comfortable seating in the living room besides the couch. We would definitely come back again!"
