We decided to visit the area a little late to have many lodging options but we were happy to be able to book Margarets Beach Resort...thinking it will be nice to be by the beach. It is a short walk to the beach which was nice but the beach had many bugs so we did not spend much time there--no fun when you have to swat bugs every 5 seconds. We booked a 2 bedroom apartment which had a nice view of the ocean...if you could overlook the damage caused by the fires. It was nice to be able to cook in the apartment which was the best part of the apartment...and the washer and dryer worked well. Besides that, the apartment was old, outdated, not very clean and not of good quality....especially when we were expecting 4 star accommodations and for what we paid. The shelf in the refrigerator was cracked and falling down. The water pressure was next to zero so it took forever to take a shower. The tub had horrible stains. The pillows were not comfortable.The walls were very thin and we could hear our neighbors parties--that went on until 3am one night and midnight another night.
On a positive note the staff was very friendly and helpful!
