What Guests Are Saying
Here's a selection of recent guest reviews to give you a feel for the experience:
"Great location near the beach (easily walkable) and very nice rooms. The pool does get a little busy but it's a family place so that's to be expected. I've seen some reviews about cleanliness but our room was immaculate. Also saw some comments about the help here but maybe you get what you give. Everyone we dealt with was very helpful and pleasant. We needed some extra towels that were not on t..."
"Stayed there for a family party. The room was clean, large bathroom. I wish the interior room lighting was brighter, a little too dark to enjoy trying to read a book. Breakfast was average. The beach was a comfortable 6 minute walk. Covered parking was a huge plus in the Florida sun. I would stay there again."
"I am writing because of the wonderful manager at this hotel. She accommodated a difficulty military lodging request of mine with patience and generosity. She was outstanding and makes her staff better with her leadership and service. A gem of a manager to interact with! Service members, consider staying here!"
