I visited for two nights to attend a wedding. The room was comfortable and clean. The staff was very friendly. The Bahi Hut tiki bar was fabulous. It’s the oldest tiki bar in Florida and the drinks were authentic and delicious.

We left… The property is a run down hotel. The room was filthy with mold, and definitely not up to code. We complained about the woman smoking right outside our door, and it wasn’t addressed until after we checked out(manager covering her ass) Asked for a refund through Expedia and the hotel stated they addressed our concerns, which the pictures I provided prove otherwise. DO NOT STAY HERE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!
Mold in the air conditioner.
Woman smoking out front of our door
Tub had towels in it.
Outlet kept sparking, and bottles left behind the microwave

We only stayed one night for my friend's birthday, but I wanted to stay longer. The pool area is great, the staff is really friendly and helpful and our room was clean. We went to the Bahi Hut and had a wonderful time. I can't wait to plan another trip with more of our friends.
