View amazing! Room very nice! Security great. Chair rental and umbrella rental annoying (We pay for the private beach access, but there are so many chairs set up to rent smack dab in front of the water you have to stand in the water to enjoy the beach).

Awesome

This hotel was really cool. Nice big room with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, a balcony, full kitchen. I really like how there’s 3 pools, with one of them being half indoor half outdoor + a huge hot tub, outside bar (only downside is they close before 7), plus direct beach access. I’d definitely stay here for a trip again

Loved the property and the condo. My only issues were the 2 small beds were VERY uncomfortable and anytime you moved they made a lot of noise. Also the tv in the master bedroom was set up where you had to get up and change the channel every time because the location of the box was behind the tv

Loved that it's right on the beach. Property itself is needs some updates which they seamed to be working on. The unit needs updated as the microwave was rusted and other things that gave a feel of not being cquite clean. The unit was clean just aged.

First time to stay here. Room was nice, bathroom problem when arrived but was fixed next day, one of the hair dryers was broken. This room was very comfortable. We did notice the kitchen counter was dirty near the blender but with these few minor gripes, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again. Having a cafe on the premises was a plus. The pools were too cold for the kids to swim. We expected one to be heated.

Bed super uncomfortable, patio furniture needs updated, need a Kureig/ more kitchen supplies, beach umbrellas at the front of the beach was an inconvenience if you wanted to sit close enough to watch your children. The bed was the biggest issue the sheets had lint balls on them and made them rough I woke up at 3am and went to the couch everyday we were there. Communication was great we were able to check in early.
