This has been a truly amazing vacation! We hunted for fossil shark teeth and found many. Got to see dolphins and sea turtles! The sea shell hunting is great too. Sad to be leaving tomorrow. Will definitely stay here again!

Room is clean. Bed is comfortable. There is a keurig for coffee but if you don't use that kind of coffee then you're out of luck there.A/C works well plus 2 ceiling fans and a floor fan.our room was like an ice box. We used the beach chairs and the kayaks and life vests. The game room is fun as well: ping pong, fooz ball, mini golf put, and more. The pool is heated! The grounds were very natural.loved it here. We had a deck with a view of the sea.
