The property was very nice,very convenient,very clean. We really enjoyed the private beach, and the docks on the icw,great fishing spot.we were able to walk to the restaurant across the bridge or drive to Venus about 15 minutes away for more variety,we will come back next year.
I've been here many times and love it. Rooms are always clean with dishes, forks, knives anything you could need to prepare meals. Even if you get a Bayside room the beach is still so close. This place is a very quiet not the partying type of beach.
Perfect for just needing a place to sleep! Steps to the beach, good outdoor area to hang out, hammocks, lounge chairs, etc. Walk to two restaurants and a beach grill that has amazing hot dogs! And a drum circle on the beach on Saturday evening into the sunset! Great experience for a solo traveler!

The location is ideal, rooms are nice and the owners are extremely accommodating.
Very nice room with amazing view. Staff was friendly and accommodating. We also booked a private boat sunset ride and were able to be picked up on the properties dock.
This place was completely accurate. It was a lovely one bedroom living space. The beach was 10 steps away from our room and everyone was very friendly and welcoming.

Pros: right on the beach, free parking although it's limited on spaces, quiet.
Cons: No free toiletries other than bar soap (listing said free toiletries so I expected shampoo/conditioner) no beach towels, bed was way to soft and sunk into the middle, had to go to office to get clean towels but their office hours are very limited so couldn't before they closed. Area not walkable to much for dinner or ice cream

This is a great place to stay if you want direct access to the beach, it is literally 50 steps away. The unit we were in was spotless and felt newly remodeled. The staff was great but honestly we never needed them. This was a great place to kick back for a few days.

Great experience and great location. Corner unit with oceanfront view and the unit was located on the beach. Great hospitality by the staff and the owners. Very clean the unit and the grounds. Installed a new Tiki hut and added more outside patio tables. Well maintained and close to a lot of attractions and restaurants. The beach was great with white sand, and the resort had a private beach for the patrons. Highly recomend the resort.
