The pool area and beach access are the major plus sides of Pineapple Villas. It was cold and windy while we were there so we were not able to enjoy those things much at all. The dog walk area is small and thorny, it was difficult to find a place to walk the dog. The facilities are very quaint. Old buildings remodeled in different stages. Mis-matched and uncomfortable furniture for sitting. Bed was ok. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Property wasn't as advertised, but was very clean (which is my #1 priority). Check in was easy and earlier than anticipated.

I loved the location! The beach is outstanding! So close and clean and no cars! And that is about all good I can say about property. The first impression wasn't good just looking at the door of our "villa". It was awfully dirty around door knob, black dirty. The door lock is very hard to lock or unlock. Needs WD-40. Inside was spacious but very shabby. I mean it. And no "shabby chic"! All metal vents was rusted and never cleaned inside. And we were breathing those air going through those vents. The refrigerator door had a lots of rust spots too. Inside it was clean though. Bathtub was kinda gross: the mat inside was not clean and on the bottom was a lots of dead little insects. The floor through all unit appears dirty. Very poor quality bedding and mattress. After seen all those neglected areas I don't know how clean bedding were. The furniture is mismatch. I think if you call establishment a "villa", it suppose to match the appearance and certain standards for cleanness. And there was no spot to dry our beach towels or bathing suits. It was 2 plastic chairs outside of back door and not even tiny table. Big disappointment about accomodations!! Just little things, like can of spray paint and little extra cleaning would have made a world of difference. I would recommend to someone the location but not the "Pineapple Villa" to stay in.

Shocked (literally) by this unit.
I was shocked to see the unit after reading these reviews. There was mold around most air ducts, the air filters haven’t been changed since July 2022, my 11 year old was shocked by a lamp when she tried to plug it up when light flickered, and the couch and beds were very bad. Also, there was an inch of dust on fans and blinds.
Lamp wire. It shocked my 11 year old.
All air vents look like this.

Run Down Rooms!
Be careful with this property! The photos shown are only SOME of the rooms that have been re-done. Many others are VERY old and dated and do not look anything like the pictures. Doors, floors, and other items were old, cracked, rusted, etc. Not what we were expecting to stay in at all. Just be careful with which room you get and you may want to contact them beforehand to make sure you get an updated room. However, I did try to contact the hotel before leaving this review as well to no response.

The hot tub only had one jet that was halfway working. The furniture was so old and showed wear. The parking was dangerous you had to pull straight in and out of oncoming traffic!

Hidden Gem
We really enjoyed our night here for a concert on the way to another destination. When we first arrived I did have a moment of “oh no this place looks older and maybe I made a bad choice”. I was wrong! While the outside seems slightly faded in color due to the sun and I’m sure salt water there was someone outside constantly cleaning and painting. The young lady behind the desk was super kind as we had arrived early. She let me know where we could change clothes to enjoy the beach until our room was ready. When our room was ready we received a text with information as to how to access our room and key. I was pleasantly surprised when we went inside. It was very clean with cold air and a comfortable bed. The bathroom was nice and roomy with an amazing shower! I plan to come back again with my family and stay longer.

This is a dog friendly property, so if your cool with that great and if not.. book somewhere else. We found dog hair in our room a lot, but I’m sure it’s hard to get all of it clean if there has been a dog inside the room for an extensive period of time. I don’t expect perfect, I just expect clean and the room just didn’t meet my expectations. The property location is AMAZING. The beach out front and access is perfect. The pool area is very nice. My only complaint is the cleanliness of the room. We had a wonderful trip, and any complaint we had regarding our room was quickly responded to. The staff was courteous and friendly. They had a sign out advertising job openings, so we opted to overlook our minor issues and enjoy ourselves. I just wanted to share the hair issue because for some that would be a dealbreaker. I would probably stay here again.

Truly beachfront. Super clean and nice place. Needs some updates. Overall, very nice and would recommend. Great that it's pet friendly also. Dogs aren't allowed on beach or you can get $100 ticket so watch for the police if you go out there with pet. There is a dog beach nearby but it's small. Pineapple Villas has a great view of the ocean.

This was our first time here and our first trip with our dog. We were pleased the room was ready early. It was clean and had been updated at some point. The property itself is old and does need to be repainted, but the grounds were kept clean. A big pluses we’re the pool was heated and the view we had was oceanfront. The water was so pretty and the sunsets were spectacular. We will be back sooner rather than later.

Pet friendly! We will be back.
Pet friendly, which is hard to find. Several other guests had their dogs with them, which was nice to see. Something we all had in common. This was our first time traveling with our dog and classic car, so we had a bunch of questions for the front desk staff. They were so kind and very accommodating. We will be back as they took such good care of us and our fur baby.

You stay here because of the location! Another pro is that the villas have a FULL kitchen stocked with essential cooking items. This saved a LOT in restaurant costs. The building its self is in dire need of updating.....I'm not talking just aesthetics either. The balcony railing was held together in places with zip ties!!!! There are some major building code and safety violations. The steps to the beach had sand burr plants growing between the steps!! These are nasty evil burrs!!! The property needs to groom the path to the beach. The property allows dogs, which I appreciate except for when the dogs are barking all day! There is very little grass for the pets to do their business....I would not stay if I was traveling with my dog. The biker bar across the street was AWESOME and there is a grocery store a block away.....other than that, the restaurants aren't very walkable, everything is further south by about 2.5 miles!! Beach was amazing and the view from my balcony could NOT be beat!

The biggest issues with our room were the view from the window facing the ocean was obscured by old tinting that was very foggy and there was a big crack under the entrance door. There were other maintenance issues. Updates are needed.The furniture and bed was comfortable. The atmosphere is friendly and pleasant. The location is convenient. The staff is friendly.

This review is tough... I'm a guy and most things do not bother me, but for my wife... the cleanliness of the rooms is the biggest negative. But let's talk positive: the rental is literally on the beach and the cheapest option in the area for walk out of your room beach access. The rooms are spacious and nice to have a kitchen. Now to the cleanliness: I suggest wearing socks or your flip flops at all times because I'm not quite sure they clean the floors. Beds slept ok, internet/tv was great. It's hard to beat the price and I myself would stay here again, my wife on the other hand probably wouldn't. I'll give it 4 stars. Cheers!
