Very friendly staff, room was great. My only suggestion would be a screen door on the porch to keep bugs out. The weather at night is perfect for open doors, property would save money on electricity as well. Not so sure about safety if doors were kept open at night. Just a thought. In general the hotel is very pleasant with a very convenient location.

The room was very nice and had terrific view of beautiful beach. The only thing we disliked regarding the room was no place to hang towels and sometimes they forgot to stick room with new towels and bath mat and coffee pods. The food in restaurant was exceptionally good but it took over 1 1/2 hours to receive food. We ate breakfast and dinner there every day and it always took this long. It seemed they were understaffed.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I had to wait over 3 hrs to check in, i asked for just an extra half hour after check out time and was told no, I paid for a king size bed with a shower tub combo overlooking the beach. I did not get my king size bed I did not get my tub. Very disappointed in the old rooms and decor. There was not enough food options and nothing extra you can pay for her. They had a vending machine for snacks but if you didn't have the right change you were out of luck. Resort that they called themselves is more like a hotel not a resort. Nothing in walking distance to give you other options of eating choices, the food at the resort was not good and very overpriced. I don't mind paying for a good meal but was disappointed every time. All in all, very disappointed.

Loved the location and beach front room but the rooms need some serious updating on beds and showers. We got very little sleep the entire 5 nights we were there because the beds were cheap and hard as a rock (could feel springs). My husband has back problems and had the worst time sleeping. For the amount of money this resort makes they could at least upgrade their beds. As for the showers, there are no shower curtains so water soaked the bathroom and there was barely any water pressure which made for a hard time washing and conditioning my hair. I would stay here again but not until they at least upgrade the beds!! Staff was all nice and helpful and got us what we needed in a timely manner especially when we realized our room was not stocked with towels/washcloths!!! I will also add the check in process was LONG and SLOW!!!! Check in time is 4pm. We arrived around 4:30-4:45 to a lobby full of people and only 2 people checking people in. Took almost an hour just to get checked in only to not even have a room ready!! It was a little after 6pm before we even got to go to our room!!
