Perfect
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/8/11
After vacationing at the same place for the last 5 years on the Atlantic we decided to take a chance on the Gulf. We found the hospitality of the staff to be above and beyond anything we have ever experienced before. Every single staff member worked so hard but yet stopped to say hello or answer any questions we may have had. The service was excellent in every aspect of our week long stay. This place is very family oriented. I am already making our reservations for next year!

Poor service and fraudulent charges
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 4/18/11
The hotel is located in a beautiful beach, but has outdated amenities and horrible customer service at the check-in desk. Not only did they lose our reservation, not have our early check-in request, and make us wait 1 hour to check-in, but they also TRIPLE-charged us! I had specifically asked them about my check since they had mistakenly showed us as a no-show for our reservation, and they guaranteed me that we were only being charged once. Not only did they charge my credit card 3 times but they also charged it for a higher rate than the receipt they issued me. Their phone lines are always busy and so I can't even get in touch with them to try to fix the issue. Hopelessly below-average customer service and broken if not fraudulent business model.

Disappointing
By Kevin, 2/22/11
Booked with Hotwire and described as 3.5 stars. It may be a 2.5 stars. Had problems with AC unit being filthy and blowing dusty air. Rooms are very outdated. No bathroom fan. Snowy TV channels. No Wifi in room. Toilet kept running. Thermostat does not work. Black mold in bathroom.

2 Day Get-Away
By Robert P, 5/26/10
My wife and I were looking for a place close by to go on a 2 day hiatus. We live about an hour away. What a great find. We got there a few hours early, since we wanted to go to the beach. They said that we could check in early since our room was ready. The pool(s) were clean, we spent a lot of time there. The beach was really nice and right out the back gate. The bartenders at the Tiki bar were really helpful, along with all the hotel staff. The waiter(Micheal) at the downstairs restaurant was outstanding. I am so glad we found this place as we will be returning often.

Back again this year
By jim downie, 3/14/10
All employees were very friendly and helpful, and rooms clean and neat. Beach and water were fantastic! Co-worker and husband have vacationed at the resort for several years, and said we'd not be disapponted and they were right. Heading back in May.

Love the location, good service and great pool...Didnt like that locals can attend! Hang out at the pool and drink at the tiki hut! They should check room keys to keep non residents out!!!
