We absolutely loved our stay at Harbor Breeze. The accommodations were top-notch, with luxurious bedding and impeccable cleanliness. The property offers a wide range of amenities, including large TVs and fast wifi. Make sure to take advantage of the private beach during your visit.
We had heard great things about this restaurant and made a 40-minute drive to get there. Sadly, the chef turned out to be impolite and unpleasant. Our group of four was so appalled by the behavior that we immediately decided to turn back and drive another 40 minutes to our accommodations without even stepping foot inside the restaurant. The food may be delicious, but nobody wants to dine in such an unenjoyable atmosphere.
The beach is stunning and the cove is very calm. It's worth noting that the beach has free public entry.
Oh joy, another beach with its cliché crystal clear waters and soft sand. How original. And of course, it's the perfect place to relax and soak up the sun - because who doesn't want skin cancer? But hey, at least it's clean and well-maintained, which is more than I can say for most public places. So if you're into generic, cookie-cutter beaches, this one's for you.
