We had an amazing time and I would honestly say it is due to the hotel being in the. perfect location, which made everything more easier for us to have a better time . My only complaint would be parking you were to think that they would validate parking because they're charging for resort fees, but unfortunately you do have to pay an overnight charge of $40.

This is a great place to stay with lots of extras! Beach toys, chairs, coolers, bikes, scooters & helmets (for kids), all free to use. Also had firepits and complimentary smore making supplies, everything you need to make smores. Also free beer & wine hour each day.

The convenient location is what initially drew us to this property. But what really blew us away was the attention to detail, the helpful staff, and the many amenities. It is also kid and pet friendly. We loved all the fun and beautiful decor. Favorites were: garden patio with fire pits for roasting marshmallows, ping pong, vintage music & record players, happy hour with plenty of non-alcoholic options, flavored self-serve water all day, and borrowing (not renting!) bikes, scooters, towels, beach chairs, & beach toys. We didn’t use the gym but would like to next time as that has just as much thought and effort put into the experience as everything else. We can’t wait to come back!

The property has several plus’s however our room was less than desirable. You will love the area around the bar, restaurant and area where you can play ping pong, enjoy a drink while make s’mores. The employee who checked me in wasn’t friendly like I’ve experienced in the past. The rooms carpet was dingy, the bathroom floor could use a good scrub. The sheets on one of the beds was torn with holes. The curtains were disgusting. Stains on them and it was noticeable. How hard can it be to clean them? Bed was uncomfortable and there was a smell. I’m thinking it was a room where animals had stayed. We ended checking out early. I couldn’t handle another night of the smell or looking at the curtains. I reserved a room that was to have some ocean view and received a room that showed run down building and other not so pleasant views. I was disappointed and won’t be staying here again.

It was probably the best place, we have ever stayed and we’ve been to 5 star resorts all over the world. This place will be our staycations, when our kids and grandkids take over our Orange County house!! In fact… they all enjoyed this hotel too when they tried to invade our staycation! Between free beer… free wine, all kinds of wonderful things for everyone, including activities for the grandkids and the amazing beach. Oh and I can’t forget the great restaurant on the 2nd floor. I just can’t say enough good things.
