It's a great space for kids. The pool is right at your door. Big enough for 3. Went to beach to see the sunset, it was a 2 min drive. You can even walk. Will come back for sure.

See you again soon, Sun Idkand Motel
What a charming motel! The courtyard pool is surrounded by comfy couches. The room comes with a kitchenette so stop by Publix on the way to stock the mini fridge. Don’t forget cream cheese because there is a toaster! We had the room next to the office so we did not hear road sounds but bring a white noise machine, ear buds or a partner with a sleep apnea machine! No ice machine and the mini fridge was no help at making ice so be aware. No movie channels, but don’t we have them on our phones? Again, earbuds are the BEST! I can’t wait to bring friends to this motel! Thank you Sun Island. Btw the bin to put pool towels in is missing.

This is my second stay here. And we loved it before . But this time there was something wrong with the TV. The settings were all messed up and it was almost pitch black , we corrected this. There were two quarter sized pixelated black marks on the tv. Then when we were trying to go to sleep the tv would turn back on at the highest volume every 5 minutes. It was really disturbing and made it hard to sleep
