This resort has a lot to offer, particularly with its great beach access and spacious units that are clean and well-equipped. The location is ideal for those who want to enjoy a quieter beach experience away from crowded high rises. However, some aspects, like the outdated decor and questionable customer service, leave room for improvement.

We stayed in a spacious 3 BR unit that was clean and had all the essentials, including a washer/dryer. The only downside was the third bedroom, which felt more like a converted storage space without a closet.
Service

While I found the maintenance staff to be lacking, the overall service experience was decent. I did encounter some disinterest from property management, which was disappointing.

The resort is conveniently close to the beach with easy access over the dunes. It's positioned away from the heavy traffic of U.S. 98, making it a great spot for relaxation.

Dining opportunities nearby ranged from casual to upscale, but the resort itself didn't offer any dining options.

There are two small pools which were rarely used since the beach was so close. However, the hot tubs, particularly the one near the beach, were nice but not always heated as advertised.

The resort is perfectly situated on a beautiful beach with easy access to pools and activities. While the rooms are spacious and have a nice ocean view, the decor feels a bit dated and could use some improvements. The staff is welcoming and accommodating, which uplifts the overall experience. However, minor inconveniences like the hotel’s need for some repairs and the lack of modern amenities might affect some guests’ satisfaction.
Rooms

The room I stayed in had a stunning view of the ocean, making for beautiful sunsets. It did have a slightly musty smell, likely due to being unused for a while. The decor felt quite outdated, resembling a 1980s vibe, which is not what I'd hope for during a vacation.

My stay was quite mixed. The property has a charming beach vibe, which I absolutely loved, especially morning walks by the ocean. The social events were a great touch, and the pool area was well cared for. However, the rooms were dated and lacked modern amenities, which detracted from the overall experience. Additionally, the service left something to be desired when it came to addressing maintenance issues.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the beachfront location is outstanding and the family-friendly atmosphere is heartwarming, the service and some room specifics left much to be desired. Although the facilities were decent, I encountered cleanliness issues and challenges resolving my concerns with the staff. Overall, it's a place with charm but needed improvements.
Rooms

The room we ended up in was clean and had a small water view from the lanai, but the other option provided was cramped and had an unpleasant smell. It would be ideal if it had better ventilation and upkeep.

While some staff members were kind and helpful, there was a frustrating lack of authority and empowerment to resolve issues directly at the front desk.

I have been visiting this resort for the past four years, and it has consistently met my expectations. The location is excellent, right across from a fun water park, and the beach is pristine. However, during my last stay, I faced some issues with maintenance in my unit, which was disappointing. The staff really made up for it with their friendly and helpful service, though.
Rooms

Unfortunately, the unit I was assigned had unclean features like black mold in the ice chute and maintenance issues with the jetted tub. The views from some rooms weren’t great, as mine looked out over a parking lot. Overall, I would rate the rooms a 5/10 due to cleanliness and maintenance.

The amenities were decent with a nice pool and hot tub, but the laundry situation was inconvenient as you had to swap towels on specific days. I would rate the facilities a 7/10.
