i went to the office to find out where i could smoke on the property! night clerk was very disrespectful! i was told as a smoker i would have to go out to the road to have a smoke !Later that evening i did that and she came out of her office and told me to move over to the next road as there was a food truck in the parking lot and i needed to move down the block away from the propane ! Note !this was 11:00 at night ! food truck was there to serve breakfast sandwiches ! no propane tanks were on ! The requested location. was across the street on a public road ! i felt extremely vulnerable with the foot traffic in the area!

This property is under major construction and eventually will be a beautiful place to stay. I was told it was being renovated and believed it was on the ocean. It is not and there is a street with houses that obstructs the ocean view from the 1st floor where we had to be due to traveling with our dogs. Probably has a better view of ocean from 2nd and 3rd floors. Due to this, we were placed at their sister property the Hallmark just down the street which is ocean front and views of ocean from 1st floor. Our stay there was great - even had nice area for the dogs. (The Whaler did not have area for the dogs however maybe they will once it is completed.) Because of this fact, we will more than likely stay again at the Hallmark.

Loved the staff, amenities, and location. We really felt like they take pride in the cleanliness of the hotel, staff were always wiping down surfaces or windows, and everyone was incredibly helpful and friendly. We will happily stay here again and look forward to seeing the whaler once the rest of the construction is complete. We did have a few small nitpicks, 1 is there is no chain or similar device on the door, just the normal lock and a deadbolt. I get it probably doesn't add a whole lot but it would have made us feel a little better and it seemed weird it wasn't there. Another is that there's no way to cool the room off other than opening windows/ vents to the outdoors, but when we did this we would get bugs especially at night. Some type of screening over the doors or windows so we can enjoy the breeze in peace without worry would have been nice. Also the seal on the entry door wasn't great and a lot of light came in at night and we could hear the wind whistling under the door whenever it blew (which was a lot).

Wonderful experience at the this hotel. Awesome location right by the beautiful sand beach, plus a great view from the balcony. The amenities were fabulous… loved the hot tub, sauna, breakfast truck, balconies, snack baskets- all of it! Super friendly staff and one of the cleanest, best kept properties I’ve stayed in. Would 100% recommend and stay again.
