We had a great stay at the Cabanas. The place is right on a quiet canal where you can see boats and even some marine life go by. It’s peaceful and relaxing, just what we needed. The cabanas were clean and comfortable, and there are good restaurants and things

We had such a wonderful stay at Waterfront Cabanas! The location is absolutely perfect!!! right on a peaceful oceanside canal where we watched boats and even manatees go by. It’s incredibly relaxing and quiet, yet just minutes away from amazing restaurants and fun activities. The cabanas were super clean, well-equipped, and full of charm. Can’t wait to come back! :)))

Clean, convenient, relaxing. There were manatees, sharks, and an abundance of exotic fish. Loved it. Would recommend the tv be in the living area, though
