We were stuck on the porch once waiting to go to dinner, but who can complain when the back up is the main attraction. Woke up on our last day to have more behind the house. We saw horses everyday, and grab some nice walks on the beach as well as fun in the sun. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e5d0c142-923b-49f3-9b26-70ac0efec2e9-1753064130753.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/30d54d95-650c-4d70-9cbc-d5d98ae07558-1753064130773.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d1415df2-06dd-4a73-a1ee-88ce1066950c-1753064105674.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cbd5751b-7923-4b17-84e8-94eb45e28b8d-1753064115716.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Justin H.
