Amazing pool. Perfect beach. Room was very nice. The staff did not allow us to bring any food or drink to the pool area. I understand but I think water should be allowed

We loved it here! You can’t beat the location and price. The pool was gorgeous and the access to the beach was amazing. We will definitely be back. The food at the restaurant was definitely expensive but we ate there a few times for the convenience and everything was very good. We especially loved ordering margaritas by the beach. Really nice staff. The rooms were very simple but we loved the updated shower and bath. We slept great. There was an event one night but we enjoyed the music. Great hotel for the price and location!

The hotel was nice other than 3 things:. 1. A large federal comuser sticker on the front door saying they were shut down. 2. The mold on the bathroom ceiling. 3. The lack of Air Conditioning in the restaurant. Other than that, it is a very nice place to stay.

They need to work on customer service. The lady at the front desk was not very attentive, they were some extra charges for no reason. Different price of what we agreed at booking. When told that the beds were extremely hard, she seemed uncaring, and bothered by the questions if all the rooms have the same beds. We regret having to stayed two nights. None of us were able to sleep. We’ve got bedbugs bites. Terrible experience. It’s a shame because it has a great location, and great views.
