Rooms much smaller than they look online. Pool towels should have been replaced ages ago. Pool staff are not people friendly and disappear frequently. Avoid Brew Pub. Servers are disorganized and have too many tables to cover. On the plus side, Avalon Prime was wonderful in every way: food, service and ambiance. Very expensive, but hey, it’s the shore! The casual restaurant has fabulous pizza!!!

We enjoyed our stay at the start of summer season at Windrift. Staff were super friendly and accomodating, we were able to checkin early. Loved all the amenities: EV charging, beach loungers and umbrella set up, pool area. Not overly crowded as most of the guest were from 2 wedding paries and busy with festivities
