The property is new and very clean. Beds are comfortable and shower is great. The room was very spacious and so was the bathroom with plenty of counter space. It was a little strange finding the front desk, since the parking garage is ground level and the front desk is 3rd floor. Follow the signs. It’s a great location if you want Honeymoon Beach, which we love. Will stay there again!

Clean, spacious but built as more of a Condo dwelling vs Hotel. You can hear everything. Secure locks on doors not available and bathroom would “lock” from inside but not from outside so Anyone could get in. The front desk team, needs a course in hospitality. Over charged due To double charge of incidental fee. Explained to Front desk my Expedia receipt for what I should Have been charged wasn’t accurate. Was scapegoated to “allow” bank processing time. I have stayed at hundreds of hotels through Expedia, And never had a charge not match booking until this stay. They added incidental to booking fee of room and then incidental as a separate charge. Finally Got a gracious live rep and handled the situation as it was hours of on going stress due to no Manager/owner on site.

The room was very large but lacked a sitting area. There was a lot of room from the bed to the TV but no place to sit other than the bed or bench in front of the bed. The building is brand new so that's a plus. The pool area was new and clean... My Problem with checking in was I received a 2-queen bed Room when I UPDATED TO A KING SIZED ROOM and when I brought hot up to the front desk they could not help me because they could only see on there end that I purchased a standard room?????

Beautiful hotel & amazing staff!

The hotel is beautiful, it’s only been open a couple of months. Everyone we encountered at the front desk morning and night was phenomenal. We came to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. The rooms are huge. The only downside of the room was there’s no where to hang towels after showers & The seals under the door aren’t flush with the floor so the light comes through at night but we just used an extra towel to block the light. The hotel is less than 5 mins from a Publix and right off honeymoon island. It was super easy to get in and out of. We will definitely be coming back here!

We had a great stay! The hotel is brand new, spotless, and very well maintained. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the large bathroom was a nice bonus. The location is very convenient — just a short drive to the beach and close to everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

Staff was great! Place was very clean! Our room didn’t have a working TV. The place is new and they are obviously still working out some kinks.
