We recently stayed at the Island House. I had read all the reviews on the internet and felt good about my choice. This place was great-whenever I called to make reservations the person I talked too was helpful and informative, kept asking me if I was a member of various organizations in order to get a discount. Check in check-out was quick, the ...

Paradise is waiting
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/01/08
My husband and I have stayed at Island House Hotel 3 years straight for a conference. The staff have always been nice and helpful. The rooms are spacious and clean. The view from the balconies are great. I can't wait to go back this year!!!!
When I went up to my room, there was a small amount of water on the floor near the back door and the wall was wet next to the door. The next morning, I noticed the wet spot on the wall had caved in a little. I told the front desk and they said they would look at it.
Later, back home when I got my credit card statement, I had a $200 charge for ...

We like the location at the beach, Nice pool and a friendly management. Large and comfortable rooms with large balcony. Good breakfast with a good selection of food. Also good for lunch.

Can't wait to go back!!!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/10/07
Island House Hotel was a great place to stay at. The staff was very friendly. I would stay there again for sure. Very clean hotel. Right on the beach.
Upon entering the hotel at the left side entrance @ 3pm there was a heavy urine smell from the lobby bathrooms. The best way to avoid the smell was to enter at the right side of the building on the front desk side. Carpet in the room had not been vacuumed, but they did have great shampoo and soaps. The pricing was $40 more per night than the ...

Comfortable and Convenient
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/20/07
The price was average. The rooms were newly remodeled. The only thing misssing was a microwave and refrigerator. We enjoyed the stay. The staff was friendly an dhelpful. The cafe hours ended rather early, 4:00 p.m., but the food and services were great. No night time restaurant, bummer! However, we are going back again this year, so it could ...

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/14/07
It was the worst ever, bugs were in our bed. I took video of it and showed it to the manager and she replied "well you know your in the tropics".I said lady you crazy, Its Alabama. There are too many bad things that happened to even talk about. Please save you and your families money. Its awfull I promise. I will attest to the mold comment above.
