Great room beautiful view, loved everything about it! The tiki bar and restaurant were a perfect place to wind down after a day spent out on the bay and at the springs!!
Free parking on site, staff was friendly, rooms were very clean just outdated. Love the marina, tiki bar and restaurant on the property! Located close to shops and restaurants.

Such a great hotel! The best location, the best staff, and manatees right out our window!!
Nice two level unit right by the water. Comfortable, clean, spacious, and a convenient location. Our only issue was the patio slide door wouldn't lock and we couldn't get the TV to change channels. Other than that - it was quiet and a great stay.
Excellent location and facilities. On site restaurant was very good. Great views from our room. Even though we arrived after hours, hotel staff made arrangements for us to access our room and complete "check in" the morning.
The restaurant was nice food was good even though it closed early but that’s ok the tv situation needs to be addressed to reset it in the middle of the night because office is closed but the view in the morning it stunning wake up 15 min early and watch the manatees wake up

it’s an old motel but clean , good view from our room and the back porch area was nice to sit on after the sun was at sunset .. The noseums were bad at sunset but if you spray down with bug spray , not as bad .. the restaurant on property was very good. It was all good for a two night stay .. the breakfast wasn’t much but provided coffee..
