My stay at the Dunes Inn had its ups and downs. The staff was incredibly accommodating and warm, making the experience memorable. The close proximity to the beach is fantastic, but cleanliness issues and maintenance problems cast a shadow over my visit. The pool area looked inviting but wasn't without its flaws, which impacted my overall enjoyment.

Though the pool area looked nice, it felt under-maintained which took away from its potential.
