Didnt like paying for chairs and umbrellas even though we were staying at the resort, plus get charged resort fees. Thought resort fees should cover the chair and umbrella costs.

Loved location overall room was good set up great space with balcony & beach view. Didn’t realize we had to pay $20 a day for parking maybe that was listed somewhere and I missed it. Kitchen area was nice with fridge, microwave & table but didn’t have any plasticware other than a couple of cups. Front desk did have some utensils packets once we asked. Everything looked clean and smelled fresh but the beds were so uncomfortable and pillows were very small/flat would have loved the big comfy bedding you usually get at hotel chains. Overall we were very happy with our stay.

If you want a fun, energetic, right-on-the-beach, and minutes by foot to lots of food, fun, and water? Look no further. It’s definitely meant for the younger crowd with loud music and easy access to lots of bars. It’s plenty safe, though. Ample parking between the lot immediately adjacent to property as well as across the street. Decent food, on beach rentals for 2 chairs, umbrella, and table is $30 from 9-5p for hotel guests. Highly recommend! Had a wonderful stay here.

We really loved our stay. The only thing I didn’t care for is the quality of bedding. The pillows were not comfortable and not smooth. The bed sheets were not of high quality. However, overall it was good. The beach and location was 5 stars for sure. Nothing to match the beauty of the beach.

Parking as a guest is an additional $20 per day which should be included in the price of the stay. The music being played by the DJ is way too loud and definitely unnecessary, it can be heard way down at the waterfront and can also be heard in your room until late at night. The DJ himself is rude when being told that he is playing it too loud. I’m thinking there is a city ordinance that prohibits this on the beach. Besides the two mentioned things, the place is nice and clean overall

Under construction and the beeping/noise at 6:30am while on vacation was unacceptable. No alternate accommodation was made. Sad for such a needed quiet trip.
