Thank you staff for making our stay memorable and exciting.
Pros:

Your staff was perfectly accommodating. I mentioned I had an infant and they send someone up with a crib and he set it up for us and he was very nice and patient. Thank you so much for that. This was our second stay here since 2021 and you have helped make it memorable. Wish we could be back soon.

Cons:

There was nothing we did not like.

Pros:

Location was decent

Cons:

Pools were not kept clean. They had white stuff floating in it. The beach access had a lot of debris while the ones next to it had cleaner paths. Lost power a few times and water cut off while in shower. Outside restroom doors needed fixing. Had to be jiggled, trapping a few ppl in.

Good reasonably priced hotel
Pros:

Friendly staff, everything in room works, Bed is comfortable. AC is quite. Price is decent. Hot tub was too hot to use (estimate 104°), Parking can be difficult on weekends when non-guests use hotel parking to go to beach.

If it wasn’t for the proximity of the beach in a restaurant, probably would’ve stayed there
Pros:

Close to the beach beach clean restaurant was good. Provided proximity and easy access to get food and drinks.

Cons:

Poor Front desk service not engaging did not promote. The restaurant not promoting discounts or anything. Had to ask for those when a customer was ahead of me. Did not get a lot of clean towels, made the bed but no clean towels, need to create a dock to access beach not feel comfortable going through those weeds and all that stuff in those situations. There was a floor nail from carpet to tile outside to balcony…
