Beautiful property right on the beach. Rooms were clean and updated. Staff was helpful and restaurant and bar was good and convenient. A free glass of wine with each room key was a nice touch. Location is within driving distance to most restaurants, golf and attractions. Pool was nice, although not heated so a bit more of a cold plunge even though we were there in July, it was surprisingly cold. There is a hot tub so that was nice. Enjoyed our stay would recommend!

We paid for our rooms on hotels.com but owed resort fees and taxes, which were quoted to be $50 something a night. Which was fine but when we got there all the extra fees, parking, taxes, pet cleaning fees and so much more ended up costing us close to what we initially paid for our rooms. The hotel was under construction so there was no convenient way to get to any rooms. I had a dog with me and asked for a room downstairs or close to an elevator. They gave me the most inconvenient room farthest away from elevator. It just wasn’t a pleasant stay. Not like it used to be. Food wasn’t very good and no more room service. The amenities we once enjoyed are gone now with new name and remodel of resort. We will most likely find a different resort for our family vacations.

I enjoyed the entire experience. I didn't like that there were no trash cans or ice machines on both sides of the hotel. I have been coming here for years and will be back in the future. Thanks

We have stayed at this property before, approximately two weeks ago and we’re not charged a pet fee of $150. We were blindsided by this charge when we checked in. It does not state this charge anywhere on Expedia or on the website. The staff was completely void of empathy and insisted this has always been their policy.
