We did a staycation to enjoy the sunset/sunrise on the beach. We stayed in a room with a balcony on the gulf side. Room was spacious, comfortable, and clean. My only two small inconveniences were only one trash can in the entire room/bathroom and the walls are very thin so we could hear our neighbor coughing ALL night long. At times it sounded as if she was next to our bed.

The resort was beautiful! Breathtaking views
The people on the other hand… were unfriendly & rude. We tried to eat at the hotel restaurant… we seated ourselves per the sign hanging and no one came. After about 15 minutes we decided to leave. The bartender saw everything and didn’t even try to assist. Service at resort was not friendly at all.

Lost it's charm 😩😩😩
Return Patrons of 4 times very disappointed this visit. Cleanliness was greatly needed.Hospitality was not found at all. Had to request items repeatedly and felt like since we visited during the a slower time of the year we were treated differently. Things in are room were halfway done. Customer service not found at all.I consider this my happy place and the standards have gone way down and I do not want this to happen. The shower alone was not up to the standards I was used to. Photos included. The noise level was horrible keeping us up more than one night during our 7 day stay.

Good, just not 4 star.
This hotel is beautiful in appearance. Location is great and beach area is not too crowded. Room keys are "sensitive". I had to have mine reset 3 days of out 6. Only got room cleaned once. They took all the dirty towles but left us none. When we call the front desk she said they would bring some up. After waiting 45 minutes my wife just went down and got them. They gave no apologies for no on bringing them and they were out of the small one you pit in front of the shower door. They said someone would bring that up and we never saw it either. A room close to us was smoking pot so we were not able to enjoy the balcony the first night there. Room was spacious but bed was so tall you had to run and jump in it. It was also very lumpy and didn't sleep well. The room was quiet though. Over all it was ok, just not a 4 star.

Horrible experience
This was one of the worst hotels experiences I have had. When we arrived the room did look like the pictures but the air would not work. After a few hours we could not stand the heat any longer and proceeded to go to the check in desk and let her know the issue. She then laughed at the situation but did give us another room. By this time it was very late and we had to move all our stuff into this new room. We got little to no sleep because the bed was squeaky. This was not a good stay at all.

Leaky but cute
I like the amount of space in the room. The bed is very high. I love balconies, so we had the corner king suite.
The only complaint is the water leak. We thought the water was coming from the shower. However, after we cleaned up the water from the floor, it reappeared while we were sleeping. It is quite "awakening" to step in water while you're on your way to the restroom in the middle of the night. We only stayed for a night. If we had known there was a leak, we would have notified the staff but I also could tell the leak was not a new issue. The hotel has potential. If I stay again, it would have to be under the same circumstance as this trip - everywhere else was booked - and I would most definitely check for leaks.

This place is beautiful, very very close to the water and the pool is heated( no jacuzzi) and they have a nice gym. The beds were amazing ( high off the ground though ) we wanted to try room service but there wasnt enough space to eat. No couch or counters.
You do have a small work table. There's no microwave in the rooms and you cant use the ones on the main floor. Theres also no washing machines in this resort that guests can use. I found one 1 mile away ( beach laundry )
Overall a beautiful place with great beds on the beach, just lacking a few basic amenities in my opinion
