Great pool! Bathroom could use some updating but had great water pressure. Room was clean
Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Don't stay here if noise will be a problem. We could hear our neighbors entire conversation. The walls are thin. Other than that I feel like this will be the place I stay at from now on, I love the pool, hot tub and pool area. The beds were comfortable and the shower was nice. The lady at the desk was really kind and helpful. Its pet friendly. We paid a $50 pet deposit for 3 nights. Not bad.
Kimberly, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was easy to work with! They even called us to check on our ETA because a water line was busted on the road in front of their property. So the front entrance was blocked and they wanted to let us know. It was a 5 minute drive to the ocean and super close to several restaurants. We look forward to staying with them again next year!
Brook, 2-night trip

Sure am glad that I finally tried this place!

TIR is cozy and cute with sparkling pools. Parking is assigned, so no hustling back from the beach to beat out golf carts. Staff is friendly and so responsive. Ileana, Tammy, and Mr. Fix it were all terrific!
