Very very very old and falling apart building. Mold everywhere. Carpet everywhere is filthy so much so that my family got their eyes sick and had to take them to a hospital. Stinky smell everywhere even the Reception counters were very dirty. I would never ever have gone there if I knew but you my readers do. Safe yourself from the humiliation and filth and take my advise DO NOT STAY AT THIS PLACE. Oh I almost forgot about the alarm going off at every hour of the day and night. During breakfast it went off and was asking people to evacuate the building. Etc etc etc

I am 100% disabled and the ocean view room was in another building over 100 yards away . I had a knee replacement not too long ago and had to sit three times before we got to the building. We wanted to get our monet back but they said we had to talk to expedia . We stayed but we got a different room in the main building. Someone should have told us that the ocean view rooms were in a different building and that the walk was very long to it. I will only be satisfied with you making me whole.

I’m not one to complain. I actually hate being the “Karen type” but someone needs to shed some light on this hotel. The cleaning staff was great. The language barrier was sometimes difficult, but we made it work. Their pricing for their bars, the indoor one and outdoor before going to the beach had different pricing for the same exact drink. And yes, it was the same day just different times. The following day I get the same drink and it’s even more. I don’t mind paying, I just like consistency. To speak with the front desk I had to call several times to finally get someone on the phone while I was staying. Before I stay, I tried to call a day prior just to verify my booking and no one answered. In one occasion, I found water leaking out of the elevator shorting out one of the lights in there. I mentioned to one of the staff but I never saw anyone address it. Ate breakfast 1 time at the restaurant. Have to say, the service was absolutely awful. Took forever to get drinks, refills and food. Waited over 20 minutes for toast. Just regular toast.

The Customer Service front desk staff Gabby in particular was unprofessional and non-responsive to courtesy emails she sent. All the staff was trained to say was Sorry! When we asked for the Managers phone contact information I never received a response from Gabby. All our request were ignored. We will never stay at any Holiday Inn anywhere again!! The service was terrible. For this being a resort it’s far from it!!

I did not like that I set up to pay at hotel at check in and they ran my card, which was not what I was paying with prior to check in . The girl stated they do that on weekends to reserve room. If I fail to show up by all means charge my card BUT I did show up and my card was charged. They did charge my new card with and additional deposit and will Be credited in 7-10 days on my other card. That is very inconvenient. I am not sure I will reserve again and then they gave us a room that you have to go thru inside then outside to access. Again very inconvenient.

Walked in to location early on a busy weekend and was met by friendly staff. They were able to accommodate me and allow to check in sooner. Then was helped by more friendly staff in finding my room. The location is amazing. Nice pool w/ swim up bar and large lagoon like wading pool for kiddos. Then easy beach access. It’s PARADISE!!!
