Our overall experience was pleasant. Pros: the a/c was amazingggg; close to the beach & good restaurants; staff was kind and attentive; room was clean and spacious. Cons: we should’ve been in a 2 bedroom suite, but were in a room with 2 beds; low water pressure in shower; extremely noisy at night, all night long, although we could not figure out where the noises were coming from. Sounded like furniture being moved along the walls, floor and ceiling. Loud bangs throughout the night. We were above the office and had nobody above us. Sounded like remodeling however outside of our suite was quiet. Very strange. Pool and pool area is kind of small, but otherwise ok.7

Clean and comfortable at a great price

Easy check-in, Otis spunkmeyer cookies as a welcome gift, to drink happy hour and breakfast. This is way better than I anticipated for the price.

Easy check in, FANTASTIC location, mostly clean and comfortable room. There was some noise from the parking lot/pool but the A/c fan was enough to drown the sound so we could sleep. Breakfast was good (pretty standard) with fresh apple/banana, yogurt, something hot daily like pigs-in-a-blanket, and cereals/waffles, etc. Golf cart rental from the lobby was convenient and no hassle. Would stay heeds again. Good value!

The rooms smelled bad. The outside is not clean. The breakfast is horrible. They do not have control over what Expedia is putting out there and not checking to see that they are overbooked for the same room. They expected 4 people to sleep in one bed. Nobody is being notified of this overbooking before hey get there- you just get to your vacation to a horrible surprise. We ended sleeping on the floor. They didn’t have enough pillows. They fixed my second night but unfortunately ruined our 1st stay. Could be a great place for the location they are in. They need new systems in place

Expedia booked the wrong type of room is what we were told when our rooms didn’t match the description of what we reserved and paid for. One room was completely wet and smelled like a crime scene. The other just smelled really bad. The breakfast was horrible. No eggs.

We would definitely come back again

We rented two rooms our family said they really enjoyed their room we also enjoyed our room we had a deluxe to bed room with the stove and refrigerator was very handy probably could use more silverware and bigger frying pan! We enjoyed the pool even though a lot of people complained it was too small there was probably 15 people in it and it wasn't bad at all.
