A lovely location
We love staying at the Villas but this time our bed was not comfortable.
My husband even said “horrible”.
Each unit, however is unique. So this doesn’t mean all beds there are bad.

Loved my stay during the off season. It was quiet and relaxing. The property is well maintained. It's right next to Driftwood Beach which was nice when catching the sunrise on the beach. Your can also watch the sunrise from the deck chairs on the pavilion. I would stay at this location again.
