Was absolutely thrilled with the amazing performance of this hotel! Staff members were beyond friendly and ready to help! Hotel was very clean and maid service came to the room everyday which was phenomenal! Breakfast was beyond expectations! Amazing selection and healthy options as well. Pool was very clean and perfect ledges to sit and for little ones to play at. Great experience and will definitely visit in the future!

One day stay. Flawless Reservation and Check in process. Wonderful facility. Very well cleaned overall, including rooms and public spaces. What a great view from my room! The facility smells clean, looks clean and stays clean. Great job for the cleaning crew!. After check out and not far from the hotel I realized that I had left behind a brand shirt at my room. I called front desk and very diligently they call me back stating that my shirt was found and it was ready at front desk for me to pick it up, which I did. Thank you! Overall it was a great family experience. Thanks! Jaime

We were looking for a place that was family and pet friendly. This property exceeded our expectations. We were greeted with gifts for our fur baby. The staff was attentive and helpful. We would stay there again.

We loved the safe, fun, family-friendly vibe of this hotel. We had a delicious late night dinner at the restaurant next door (Floridays), enjoyed the hotel happy hour snacks and drinks, daily treats in the lobby, marina area, pool, gym, and free parking. The location is great - just a short drive from all the beautiful beaches. The only not so great thing was the water around the marina/hotel was stinky and murky. We were hoping it would be better. Love this hotel and will return!

We upgraded to a suite, and the a/c would only blow hot air in the main room. Our children were comped a free room, but we were unable to be together or use our suite as intended!

Just an overall stellar place to stay. Staff were phenomenal, quick to address my needs and helpful every step of the way. Interacted with the front desk, Housekeepers, Bar tenders and wait staff. All were extremely helpful and seemed genuinely interested in making my day as well as my families.
