Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I’ll start by saying the staff at check in was very nice. I arrived very late and the hotel was at full capacity, so despite my room smelling horribly (unbearably) bad like mildew masked over with cleaner, I had to sleep there. They offered to put a machine in there that would help zap the smell, but it would be very loud and would take at least an hour or so. It was very late so that didn’t seem realistic. When I woke up and got out of bed I noticed 4 centipedes in different areas of my room crawling on the floor. Checked out immediately! The refunded me for 1/2 of my total, which I don’t think was acceptable given the state of the room and the fact that I spent 7 hours there total. It was clearly not a room suitable for guests. Feels very shady that I was charged at all for such a horrible experience.

The hotel is beautiful inside and out. It is on the gulf with its own beach. As a guest you get lounge chairs set up on the sand For $15 they will set an umbrella up for the day towels are included. A lemon water stand is by the sand and the 2 pools A tiki bar is outside for drinks and snacks and lunch with tables by the beach and pools. On the 8th floor is a five star restaurant and bar for meals and drinks in a beautiful modern atmosphere. The staff are always available to make you comfortable. Parking is self or valet your choice. My husband and I will definitely return

absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic – just a short walk to the beach, where you can enjoy the sound of the waves and relax in the sun. One of the highlights of my stay was watching the breathtaking sunsets every evening – truly unforgettable! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful getaway. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Nice place

Over all the stay was fine, but we were disappointed at check in when we were told that given the busy weekend, guests were not allowed. We were in town for the purpose of visiting local friends. We had to pivot at the last minute to find other plans and things to do. Def made the stay less enjoyable as we had to find stuff off property to do, which the whole reason we stayed thier was the amenities on property.
