Clean room, comfy bed but room was smaller than expected. Location was great, loved the umbrella/chair service and the shuttle service and both drivers we had were excellent, so friendly and nice. Parking is limited on site, but we didn’t move our car all weekend. Would come back to Icona but not book through expedia due to the $100 plus resort fee they charge and we couldn’t upgrade or change room since it was booked through them as well.

The property is in good condition/new. Staff was friendly. However everything seems to be on the the small side. The room was smaller than I expected. The parking lot was small. We came back later in the evening after dinner, there weren't any parking spots left. Also there was a resort's free on top of the price from Expedia

Great Stay

I have no complaints. It was very clean. Housekeeping did a great job. The bed and bedding were comfortable. The refrigerator was a nice size. They stocked the rooms with a few dishes, cups, glasses, silverware, coffee K cups, etc. They supplied you with a lot of toiletries and and towels, etc. There was plenty of closet and drawer space. I noticed they wiped the outside furniture clean often. They took umbrellas and chairs to the beach. They had a van to take you places on the island. Parking spaces provided were under cover. Right behind the hotel was free street parking if the under cover spaces were full. Desk folks were kind and pleasant. Workers were happy to help you when needed. I’m sure I may be forgetting things, but a great stay..would return.
