The property is clean, spacious, and staff is welcoming. The only complaint I have is the shower lacked decent water pressure and you had to flush the toilet several times for it to work properly.

Robert at the front desk was amazing. We asked if it’d be too much trouble to check out a little late, and had no problem in us doing so. It was an amazing experience and he helped make it even better. My girlfriend has never seen the beach before, and wow, this was a great view and a great beach. Thank you!!

The hot tubs are actually hot and they have two at this property. Plus what I really liked that at night they had blue LED lights showing out the hotel so you could easily spot it in the lineup of buildings. Easy to find day or night. Hotel color on outside is blue and white.

This hotel has a serious mildew/ mold problem. It smells really bad. But it has large rooms, comfortable beds, big bathrooms, a partial view of the gulf, and a very generous breakfast buffet all for $86 a night. If you can live with the smell, it is a good deal.
