Great spot to stay!
Overall the property was nice. Bedrooms were nicely done. Sliding patio door was old and worn therefore hard to slide, handle was broken..so hopefully it’ll be replaced soon. Kitchen was well equipped. Everything was fine. The beach was just across the parking lot. I would stay there again!
