“The resort's design evokes a nostalgic tropical charm, complemented by an attentive staff, with a manager praised for her exceptional service. While the beachfront location holds appeal, the nearby creek impacts the beach's cleanliness, which can be a drawback. I would recommend it for those seeking a relaxed stay by the adult pool, provided the rates align with expectations.”
