IT is difficult to get to and find the check in area. But my issue was the pool area does NOT look anything like the picture. THere is still so much repairs that need to be done and I hope that they continue to work. The tiki bar was fun and priced right

Our go to spot. Nicely decorated rooms with comfy beds. Entertainment down at the tiki is always fun. Newly opened rooms in the back haven't stayed in yet but they look amazing and so does the new pool. Stay here you won't be disappointed. We love the lighthouse

The TV had a line through it, The band that was playing needed to keep their political views to themselves. The shower when it was draining the toilet was backing up and bubbling. Cigarette butts everywhere. The pool they show in pictures not the one on premises. A place over 60 plus trying to relive their youth.

ELEVATOR DIDN’T WORK!! We had a room on the 3rd floor and weren’t told the elevator wasn’t working. I have lung issues and all those stairs in the humidity were too much. Parking is minimal with tight spaces, checkin didn’t have signage or anywhere to park to get to their office, the pool is small, beds uncomfortable, and minimal water pressure in the shower! We DID like the huge Tiki Bar, bartenders, good drinks and music!! People were enjoying themselves and it was a nice mix of age groups. The hotel is across the street from the beach and next to Margaritaville. There’s nearby walkable places to eat but golf cart and shuttle transportation is available for a few dollars per person.
