We had stayed at the EBTC four years ago and loved it. The complex is on the beach and we know we have to pay extra for that luxury. We were aware how devastating the recent hurricanes were to the area. We were a bit taken aback the day we arrived to be informed beach rebuilding was occurring directly in front of the complex. Beach repair is not a fast process as we observed the week we were there. Sand is dredged from elsewhere and pumped along with lots of water to the site. Bulldozers, excavators and other large construction equipment move about leveling sand and repositioning the piping used to transport the sand/water. We were annoyed that crews were working ANY GIVEN hour of the day/night doing their thing. Many times instead of enjoying the surf, we heard the beep beep beep of equipment backing up or the clattering and clanking of bulldozers. Progress on the beach was maybe 2-300 feet during our time there, again not a quick process. The construction area was blocked off with signs stating it was a felony to enter. So it was quite a ways to walk to get our feet in the Gulf of America. Otherwise, the condo was adequate for us and host responded quickly.
