I went on an unplanned stay.. no vacant anywhere, so they had one but they were all filled by 2 pm. The staff was very helpful. The room was the most reasonable on the island. You get what you pay for, but when I go to the sea, i don't spend all my time in the room anyway. So it was there for us when I needed a place. The phones didn't work. Take your cell. It is not sound proof at all so take it for what it is. If you don't have reservations, expect to pay alot for the rooms beachfront. You just walk across the street.to there access. It's a lovely beach. My advice, plan ahead. I assure you, they are the most reasonable.

If you are a mature adult, that cares about respect as a human being for others as well as yourself, then......... this place is not for you!! This place will put a roof over your head, and that is all I can find positive to say about it.



I am 40yo male, that can withstand absolutely terrible conditions without complaining. But since I brought a family to feel safe and healthy by the end of the vacation. I cannot guarantee that your family will come home without some 'innocence' lost.



Our room: had cat urine within two feet of the door. (still wet), and smell permeated the room.

Allowed to move to a second room, and microwave was not cleaned for months, bathroom tiles were growing mold, and air conditioning unit, that was in the wall, had noticeable gaps in between, which seemed to allow a family of fruit flies to inhabit the room.



Next door neighbors were a pack of what they probably referred themselves as, bohemian surfer dudes, were enjoying a video on gnarly wave catching. I only know this, because you could hear everything that they said, between the (whoaaaa!! and duuuude!!)



Although there is a phone, the buttons did not depress, upon closer inspection, the phones are not real.



Summary (as if you need more from me): if you are a twenty-something year old with low income, or proudly refer yourself as a 'redneck', 'trash', or have a basic disregard for your own safety. THIS PLACE IS FOR YOU!!

Sand everywhere. In the carpet, clogging the shower drain, everywhere. Neighbors were creepy. They would come outside, sit on lawn chairs, drink beer and stare at us while we swam in the pool. I would not touch the comforter on the bed. I made my boyfriend throw it in the corner of the room. Motel staff was rude. I can't believe we stayed here for 4 days.
