"The property has nice decor, in both the rooms and the common spaces. The pool and grounds are attractive and well-maintained. However, we stayed for 3 nights, and maid service never came to our room even though we were out most of the day. We did not call management the first day and didn't bother ..."

"Room was ready a little early so was able to get in when arrived. Staff was very polite and courteous. Noticed room floor needed to be cleaned and vacuumed more. Air conditioner is a little loud and toilet would run. View was nice with oceanfront room. Overall weekend stay was enjoyed."

Stay at AB resort
"We've stayed at AB resort before and had a certain type room. We were expecting same type of room, but got a different type room that was a bit cramped for four but it worked ok. Also they've started charging for parking at the resort, which is kind of odd and unnecessary, but it is what it is."
