The service at the Opal Sands was top notch! The rooms were spacious and clean. There was also a guest pantry on every floor fully stocked with waters , individual bags of ice, snacks and fresh fruit. Every room really did have a view of the Gulf. SO BEAUTIFUl! My only complaint, beach chairs and umbrellas should have been part of the daily resort fee. While bikes were included, I did not see where to get them but more importantly there really was no where to ride them. The roads were packed with cars. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here and will be DEFINITELY be returning.

This place is fabulous! Very nice resort. Beautiful setting, restaurants around to walk to. Got a great massage at the spa, too. The only suggestion I would make to the resort is to be a bit less stingy with the snacks in the pantry each day. They are a nice perk, but not if they are all gone right away ! Also, the pool and deck areas are beautiful views of the water - gulf front!

One of our favorite vacations. Clean beaches. Great room views. Post-storm rebuilding has progressed very well (We're still missing We The Pizza). Servers on the pool deck were fantastic (thank you Emily for making the trip so memorable).
