Our unit looked exactly like the pictures listed. Clean, and inviting. We loved that they had shopping carts on site to help transport groceries to our room. We haven’t seen this elsewhere. Alan was phenomenal with getting us settled to our beach set ups that came complimentary to our room. I loved having the bunk beds for kids because EVERYONE had their own beds! We will be back!
