We stayed here to get away from Hurricane Ida mostly, but we all were thoroughly joyed to be there even with a catastrophe going on back home. People were great and the place was cozy and clean.
We had plenty of space for all of our needs. Well thought out for excess bags like cubby’s and hooks. The only down was while we were getting ready the water was shut off without any warning. We called the property manager and the lady that answered said “she didn’t know because they do not tell her anything” but they did come back with a quick response as to why , they were checking meters. The patio was very nice to sit and have coffee and nightly convo!
Great property! Very clean and up to date interior and decor.

Spring break
There were 8 in our party, 4 adults and 4 kids and fit comfortably.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The cottage is perfect just as pictured! Everything was spotless.
The resort is quiet and family oriented. The staff at the beach was very nice and helpful.
The walk to the beach is short, about 5 min. Overall the place is beautiful and will return.
FYI the resort is about 25 min (driving ) from harbor walk attraction/area.

This villa was uncomfortable for how much we payed. Definitely the mattresses were old and again, very uncomfortable. The sofa bed was dirty and the least comfortable. There were kitchen appliances that weren't working properly, for example, the blenders. one of them was not working whatsoever and the other barely worked. The house looked way better on the pictures and we were very disappointed at the outturn. Not worth the price. Dirty.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Hidden Dunes Cottage 173. We are very disappointed to hear you did not have a great experience with us. We are very happy to report the property sold and the new owner completely renovated the property, i.e. new furniture, paint, appliances, artwork, etc. We enjoyed having you as our guest and hope we get another chance to earn your loyalty.
