The guest experience

8.3out of 10
932 verified reviews

Loved most

  • Beachfront / oceanfront location
  • Cleanliness praised by many guests
  • Family-friendly amenities (pool, lazy river, kids activities)
  • Friendly / accommodating staff
  • Good value / price
  • Spacious rooms (reported by several guests)

Worth knowing — Outdated bathrooms and need for updates · Housekeeping issues: hair in room, messy rooms, fridge leaking · Pet/dog disturbances and inconvenient designated pet area · Pool/amenity maintenance concerns and limited pool hours · Check-in/check-out times (4pm/10am) feel restrictive · Deposit/refund dispute reported by one guest

How guests scored the stay

  • Location9.0

    Very strong sentiment: beachfront/oceanfront repeatedly highlighted, close to activities and convenient; ocean views and immediate beach access were consistently praised.

  • Service8.6

    Staff frequently described as friendly and accommodating; multiple guests said staff were great. Isolated negative incidents reported (rude beach-chair attendant, a guest upset about a $50 deposit/refund), but overall service sentiment is positive.

  • Value for Money8.4

    Several guests noted good price and decent rooms ("good value"). A few outliers (deposit/refund dispute, maintenance issues) temper the score but overall value sentiment is positive.

  • Amenities8.3

    Amenities are a major plus (pool, lazy river, kids splash area, on-site activities) and frequently enjoyed; some guests asked for more restaurants on-site and noted pool/grounds could use deeper cleaning or longer hours.

  • Overall Experience8.3

    Most guests enjoyed their stay and would return (multiple 9–10/10 comments), highlighting location, activities and staff. A few strong negative personal experiences and maintenance issues reduce the overall score slightly.

  • Food and Beverage8.2

    Food sentiment mostly positive for on-site bar/food (bar food called 'really good'), but limited restaurant options inside the hotel were mentioned as a drawback.

  • Cleanliness8.0

    Generally praised as very clean by many guests ("top tier", "very clean"), but several reports of hair in rooms, a messy room with a leaking fridge, scratched floors and requests for deeper cleaning of pool/facility areas.

  • Room Quality7.6

    Mixed: some guests called rooms spacious and comfortable, but others reported issues—outdated bathrooms, small bathrooms, tub backing up, uncomfortable bed, refrigerator not cooling and visible wear (scratches).

    “We didn't eat there. We liked the convenience to restaurants . Comfortable beds. I didn't know the room were so small so we had no chairs to sit in other than bringing in the patio chairs.”

    “The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. The furnishings we're old. The dresser drawer were broken. And were not in working order. Should be more up-to-date. Should have Keurig coffee maker., not the old kind. The bathroom was just okay. Nothing to write home about. Just old.”

  • Overall it was a pleasant stay. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating.
