The beach is stunning. The property is quite dated …. We had some trouble with the bath tub not draining and not getting the TV to work. There isn’t much close by so you need a car really. A couple of the ladies in reception were really not friendly.

The Shell Island Resort has an amazing location. The beach access is phenomenal along with the views from the room balcony. We walked all over the beach, swam in both pools and the cold ocean. The onsite restaurant food was very good, especially after driving all day and not having to go out somewhere for dinner. The staff was friendly but I was surprised when checking out the lady never asked how we enjoyed our stay or anything else for that matter. Quite cold. I was thrilled with having the parking garage so close to the entrance as well as the room itself. Lots of windows, nice kitchenette, two separate bathrooms and those terrific views. I hate to complain, but the water tasted terrible. I would suggest bringing a few gallons with you if you love great tasting coffee in your room. All in all, we will definitely return.
