Room was okay. It looked like it was recently upgraded. There were two problems. The heater in the room with the bed was broken so we were cold and the bed was definitely not upgraded. It was rather uncomfortable.

I’d like to give a big shoutout to the front desk associates, Akilah and Eddy!! They were very friendly, professional and helpful. Akilah went above and beyond to make our stay more memorable and we appreciated it very much. Thank you to her from us! I would recommend staying at Beachcomber for sure. For the price you get a beautiful view of the Gulf and a large bathroom with a comfortable bed. Coffee and lemonade in the lobby were very good. You also have a coffee maker and refrigerator in the room. Book your stay and have a wonderful time in PCB

The staff was wonderful, the view of the beach magnificent. We loved the jacuzzi tub in the room. However, the booking listing was not entirely accurate and there was not an open bar on the property as detailed in the listing. There was also a daily resort few which is confusing given the lack of amenities. I would have chosen a different hotel if the listing had been accurate.

The room was very outdated and dirty. The towels were stained and small. The bathroom was out of body wash and conditioner and this wasn’t filled by housekeeping. The room had a bad odor. The WiFi did not work at all during our 4 day stay.

The bathroom sink did not drain well at all the floor in the bathroom was not only old and stained but dirty as well. Needs a good scrub and the toilet needs bleached. The surcharges and how my bill in the end is exactly the amount Expedia said it would be but the young lady at the counter made it sound as if we were paying more than what Expedia had said was our final total. That was quite unnecessary aggravation that neither I nor the 2 other people that checked in ahead of me should have had to go through.

We stayed December 5 to the 7th we are locals but my daughter wanted to wake up on the beach for her 19th birthday. The weekend was very rainy so we really didn't get to enjoy the beach but the view from our 7th floor balcony was breathtaking. My only issue was the rooms need some upgrades. The bathroom needed a touch of paint or re tiling here n there , but for the price it was more than worth it. Some small tweaks here n there and that place would be a perfect get away. We didn't interact a lot with staff but they seemed nice.

Great beach, but the bed was uncomfortable, the room was dirty and floor was covered in mildew. We stayed because it was cheap but left the next morning. Drove 2 minutes and realized we left our liquor in the fridge, called and were told that the cleaner already threw it in the trash. I said we literally just left. I asked to speak to the cleaning manager, she said sorry it’s our policy and if we want to come back and dig in the trash we could. We will never stay here again.
