Montreal Beach Resort

Montreal Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"It was perfect. Out one door to the beach and out the slider door to the pool with a private patio. Harry's restaurant was right there with excellent service and staff. A big plus was the golf cart shuttle to Washington Square. John was the best and gave us great food ideas. Don't miss the Rusty Nail!"
