More renovations going on than anticipated. Staff was very friendly but property seemed very understaffed and took a long time to get anything. Food at the restaurant was brought out wrong twice and was not on par with other local dining options. My fried oysters were awful. Would consider giving the property another chance after renovations, but too many other options on the island. I also think paying the full resort fee is a little ridiculous considering a lot was closed on the property during Spring Break. We had a good time overall but could have been a lot better.

So awesome we stayed an extra night. The hotel was undergoing some construction so we got a great rate. Pool and beach which is minutes away was ideal for children. Kids bingo at 3:30 with prizes which the children loved. The surrounding area is just immense. Everything you could want in a sea side town. Proper classy place we will be back

Construction is being done on the property, our room was next to the project causing us to not be able to sleep in as planned. We requested a room change and it was approved only this time our view was facing the construction. It was also a wedding ceremony on the property, causing us not to have access to the entire property on Saturday evening.
