Very friendly helpful staff; they worked hard to be accommodating. Outdoor stairs are rusty and had holes. Bix springs showing wear. Pervasive sewage-like smell in the room; we used air fresheners and air conditioner to try to mitigate. Shower temperature takes some finessing.

Bad experience, they gave us keys to a room that was not cleaned at all the old people trash and used items were there. Then the new room had a broken tv they never came up to fix and then the fire alarm went off at 7am. Bad experience.

Sure! Here’s a review you can use or tweak for Expedia: --- We visited during a non-tourist time, so it was pretty quiet. After check-in, the receptionist was nowhere to be found for the rest of our stay, and the place felt a bit deserted. Most amenities weren't available, and the furniture was quite old and outdated. That said, the check-in process itself was smooth, and I was satisfied with the bathroom and the overall cleanliness of the room. One suggestion: they really need to install some vending machines that are actually working—there were none in working condition during our visit, which was disappointing. Overall, not terrible, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

Room was clean, and functional. Did not like being told I had to pay in cash for parking my car on the hotel's property. I've stayed at this location for several years and never had to pay parking fee. why the fee and why it had to be cash??

No place to take my dog to bathroom. No vending machines. No staff at front desk, had to call and wait for someone. Jackie, who did come was friendly. Wasn’t told they had breakfast in the morning, check out time, pool and hot tub hours. Not really walking distance from Main Street, they did have golf cart rentals on site. Rooms were clean

Employees very nice, pool area was very clean, if you can’t do stairs make sure you ask for 1st floor Ths was totally my fault and for it being Labor Day Weekend they where very nice being able to change my room. We had Jackie signing us in and she is very good and what she does. One thing I didn’t care for was the music playing by the pool, it was pretty raunchy rap.

Friendliest place on the Island

Met, and made friends on island staying at other resorts, and ours was definitely the best choice for us! The staff is so friendly and accomodating. The other guests staying we encountered were welcoming & great fun as well. LOVED the indoor outdoor pool! Only one on the island!! My favorite part, and what makes this the best choice, ithe resort is tucked in a quiet little nook, a few blocks from town, and around the bend from the Put In Bay Winery. So you can have some time after a fun night of partying to relax and unwind, before heading out again. Best of both worlds! Already looking forward to next year! No other place I want to stay!
