Family-Friendly Fun

“My family of six had an amazing time at the Beach Acres Resort, where the indoor pool became a daily highlight. The kids absolutely loved starting each morning with a swim, followed by hours of building sandcastles and splashing in the ocean during low tide. It was the perfect setup for both relaxation and play!” view full review

The resort was a lovely retreat, offering a peaceful environment with beautiful views right by the beach. The cabin we stayed in was spacious and comfortable, ideal for our needs, and the facilities were a nice complement to our stay. However, dining at the on-site restaurant can be pricey, and the pool area, while enjoyable, can get crowded during peak times.

We had a fantastic family getaway at this resort! The cabin was spacious, with a great partial ocean view, and the kids loved the playground and indoor pool. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable. We did have some issues with the comfort of one of the beds, and navigating down to the beach was a bit challenging for my grandfather, but overall, it was a memorable and worthwhile trip. I can’t wait to return!

This resort is a picturesque getaway right on the beach with stunning views. It offers spacious accommodations perfect for families. The service was excellent, and the management was very attentive.
