"The stay was comfortable. We love the area and come every year. Our vehicle was towed from the property on the day of check out. The parking pass was sitting in the car and not hanging. The parking lot was not full and only had a handful of cars. I don’t like that they do not take the vehicle information for the parking. This made for a very stressful checkout day. "

"Took awhile to figure out how to get in as there are two door codes, top one does not work. Must touch the lower keypad to activate. Remotes for the TVs took awhile to figure out. Kitchen was clean and beds were made upon arrival. Very close to the beach, but the jellyfish were plentiful while we were there so the pool was a good alternate to getting wet. Worth the money."
