Very loud music, late into the night. No smoke detector in room. Very minimal cooking equipment in the kitchen, not even a steak or cutting knife. It was advertised to have a guest laundry on site and it did not. Our room was ungodly hot. When we asked at the front desk, they said it was because it was hot outside, but every other guest we asked at the pool said there rooms were all 70 degrees or lower. Ours was hardly under 80 despite thermostat being set at 68. We watched a housekeeper just leave our door room wide open the whole time she planed our room while we were at the pool. Definitely will not be back and will not recommend this place. Most of the staff acted like they didnt want to be there when asked for anything. A bartender rolled his eyes at me because he had to put his cigarette down to fill my ice bucket. They allow smoking all on the property too which I would have absolutely not booked here had I known.
Place looks thrown together after Ian.
A piece fell off our mirror in the middle of the night.

The worst place i have ever experienced

We were locked out of our room for hours. There were no hotel staff to let us back into our room. We paid over $300 per night and had to sleep in our car to wait for someone to show up to let us into our room. It was the worst vacation ever.

Our stay was wonderful! Our rooms were new and large. Check in was quick and easy and we were even able to check in early. The pool was clean and fun. The Tiki Bar was a good time. The hotel is in a perfect location- so walkable to the beach and the restaurants and bars nearby. Plus free parking, right by your room! Great stay, definitely recommend.
