I always say, "Never judge people for you never know what burdens they carry upon their shoulders." I was there to spend some money - Big mistake with your attitude. I will not return to this store. It's all about how one is treated that will make a sale.

I did not see any signs stating no returns on bathing suits besides I asked and was told I could. I called because I noticed that on the receipt it gave you 7 days for return and it was the 7th day and I live about 30 minutes away. I was told there were no returns on bathing suits and they were final. I asked to speak to a manger and was told he was not there but would be there later around 6 PM. I left my name and phone # for the manager to call me and he never did. I grew up on the island and I live in Manatee county, I also own properties in Holmes Beach that I rent out. I will make sure that none of my renters visits this store due to the way they conduct there business. They lie and do not have the courtesy to return a call to a unhappy customer. I have three children and grandchildren and I know the store owners on the island as well and I will make sure they all know how poorly this location is ran. I also saw all the negative post on there site as well about the customer service and rudeness and being lied to. I would never recommend this store to anyone, stay away they do lie and are not customer friendly.

I am back in my suite five minutes later and just want the world to know they are blessed to bump into ladies like her. Shout out to the lovely Jennaly (sp?) who is also friendly and adorable. Love the price and value of my items. Check em out.
