We had a wonderful relaxing stay! Being able to walk right down to the beach was amazing! All of the staff members were super nice and accommodating making us feel like they really wanted us to have a nice stay. We loved the pool area but REALLY wished the pool was heated like at some of the other hotels because the water was way to cold to go in and enjoy the pool( the weather was warm enough to swim but pool water was freezing). One thing that was not so great was the smell of the water and pipes I smelt it the entire time we were there.

Great hotel right on the beach!
We only stayed 2 days, but it was a very nice get-away. The Residence in was awesome! It was right on the beach and our room had a view of the ocean, with a balcony. The only downside is the ocean itself was very dirty.

Spring Break 2024
We stayed from Wednesday to Sunday, and the check in process went really smoothly and quickly. When we got to the room, at first glance, everything looked nice. Then, I noticed that we didn’t have rags so we had to call and have them sent to us. I also cooked one night and noticed that the dishes were not completely clean so I had to clean them before I used them. Overall, not terrible but not impressed either.

Poor room condition - not accommoating
We arrived late (1030 pm) having been on the road all day. The front desk would not accommodate a late check out the next day and was not very friendly about it. When we got to our room there was no bedding for the pull out sofa. We had to call for it and when they brought it they had no extra pillows available. The mattress on the pull out sofa was dirty and hard. The bathroom tub faucet was loose and coming out from the wall so to take a shower you had water running into the tub and from the shower head. There was a weird noise (like a loose pipe noise) coming from the bathroom ceiling. There were broken door handles in the kitchen. Just not in the best condition.

Was better in the past
We like the location but the breakfast was bland with little options. The area for breakfast was not cleaned after every meal and the service was just okay. The grill area by the pool was not clean and the bike rentals are outdated. We stayed here before and it was much better but after this trip we will not be back based on the experience.

Disappointing
The hotel was beautiful. We booked a balcony, island view room for our family of four. We were very disappointed to learn that we did not have a balcony, but a patio facing the parking log and dumpsters. I asked the front desk about the room and they told me that I received what I paid for. Our room was a balcony room on the first floor. This was so disappointing. We specifically booked this hotel for the balcony and paid extra for that room type. A few other things worth mentioning: -No bedding for the pull-out couch, called the front desk and they said we had to come get it (even though 4 staff members were working at the front). We were given one sheet and one pillow case. - Two bath towels for a family of four, called the front desk and we had to make another trip to get more towels. -The plates and glasses in our kitchen were all dirty and greasy. The disposal did not work and the sink hardly drained. -Our room was never cleaned during our 5 night stay. Could not communicate with housekeeping as they did not speak English. -There were also screws in the hallways on the floors which was strange. There the whole time. -We were promised an 80-degree pool and there was no way it was even 70 degrees. The hot tub was hot one day and cold the next. Many guests were upset by this. -Every morning there were large trash bags placed on our patio, not that we would want to sit there to watch the parking lot but it was very rude. I was very disappointed overall.

The facility and room were excellent. We were there over Christmas so room service was limited to changing towels, no trash pickup or other. Restaurant was good, selection and price. The free breakfast was inadequate for the number of customers, out of most items including juice.
