This was our first stay here and it definitely will not be our last. The staff was courteous and helpful and the customer service was impeccable. The activities on site were enjoyed by all and was appreciated that everything was kid friendly, we especially enjoyed the movies by the pool. The food was good and the breakfast buffet had so many options it was easy to satisfy everyone including the picky eaters. We had a blast! Til next time HIR FWB, we can’t wait to come back!

Everything was wonderful. This is the 4th time my family has stayed at the resort and we'll definitely be back. It's our home away from home when we're in the panhandle area. There's no better place. 💜

The stay at this property was one of the best in all of my many visits to florida. I arrived earlier than check in with kids in tow and it was a long drive, the staff was able to get me in to my room a little early which was a huge help. All of the staff were courteous and helpful and very friendly. I loved the facilities with the lazy river and the beach right off of it. Special thanks to front desk worker Lauren.

We loved everything about this place! Quick and easy from the airport. So family friendly with lots of extras for the kids. The “bubble lady”, the mermaids visiting daily, Chase from “Paw Patrol”- our granddaughter was enthralled with all of it!! The restaurant on property was also excellent, but fantastic seafood, restaurants, and gelato within walking distance. Highly recommend!

The property is great. Pool is wonderful for children. The only issue I had was no one came by for two days for turn down service. I had to go ask for towels on day 2. But they were nice and got it right to me.

It was a typical Value type property that they were charging premium prices for. My tub had holes rusted through it. There was low water pressure oh hot. It was run down. I will say that they were doing maintenance on the place. It may be that they had had a busy summer season and the place had gotten beaten up. Very much a lower tier value type family property.
