Shell Island Resort - All Oceanfront Suites
Staff was great and views with ocean facing balcony were amazing. Only negative was the room could have been cleaner. Hard water has been rough on the shower fixtures. Other than that, I’d definitely return.

Trailborn Surf and Sound, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy
We stayed at Trailborne for a wedding. We found the everything was very nice. My only complaint would be, all rooms with stated Juliette balcony was only only an open patio door with a gate, you really do not have a balcony per say.
