Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The hotel was very nice, the outdoor pool was great. It was also a very nice temperature for January. The view was awesome. The room was a dated, with several items that needed attention. The shower definitely did not perform up to expectations. I will also add that you can find much nicer toilet paper in the local gas station bathroom or maybe even in a newspaper stand. You would think that a hotel that promotes itself as a resort could at least have nice toilet paper!?! The breakfast should have been included because it wasn't really any better than a typical free continental breakfast at most hotels. Otherwise, this is a pretty nice place to stay that's right on the beach.

She was the best and I wish she would come work at my business and train our staff on hospitality. Hotel was right on the beach. Half the rooms are ocean view. For the price, great place!!

Great beach view, extremely clean beach area w/very soft sand, excellent & fun pools, bar was always hopping in the evening, staff was always so helpful & courteous. We were blown away at how staff went out of their way to push the elevator button for us, welcome us, tell us to have a great day. Having the bunk beds for the kids in the room was perfect-it even had bean bags & their own TV!! The balcony was roomy enough to enjoy & dry towels on. You could rent chairs/umbrellas for a fee each day. It was a perfect stay.

very nice staff, convience location, reasonable price. Beach has a lot of seaweeds in the afternoon, early morning water is clear and no seaweed.

This was a great experience. It was nice to be right on the beach, and able to move between the book and the beach. Also, was nice to be able to use the pool at the neighboring Hilton hotel to switch things up. Only negative is the construction that is going on with the bridge, but obviously out of the hotels’ control.
