The hotel checked us in early. We got our parking pass and pool access before our room was ready. Our room was redone recently and even had tags still on the furniture. They should have updated the tubs and appliances. Everyone was pretty friendly.

This is an older hotel so a little outdated, restaurants all closed at 8pm super early not much open after that. The layout is interesting it’s a studio style setting. The Jacuzzi could have been hotter 100’-104’degrees and there were mosquitoes flying around which made me get right out. There was also a moth in my bathroom that was flying all over the place.

The room was nice, spacious. There are only 2 wall A/C units and both are on the first floor. There is a ceiling fan in the loft which kept it mostly cool but it ticked like a metronome. Mildly annoying. The pool area is great for the kids and adults. Also they have cabana’s you can rent for the day.

The hotel is in a great location. I loved being so close to the water. It was also very quiet. Due to adding a night to my reservation (and doing that through Expedia) it caused a lot of problems with the staff. Although I did my best to call before I checked in to let the Cove staff know I added a night to my original reservation, it still caused issues. I found this very annoying and the male staff member at the desk was rather rude.
