Staff was nice and helpful, room was clean, no dresser to put things in, and during the night the weather was in the 30’s, no heat in the room. We had to put clothes and jackets on to wear in bed. Called to the office which had someone bring us a space heater. So tiny and vibrated all over the floor. Too cold to shower in am.

Hot shower, warm pool, and just a quick 5 minute walk to the beach. Also a bar on site that opens at 4 and a 2 minute walk to a couple of eating places! Would stay at again for sure!

Falsely advertised as a gay prioritized resort, tiny rooms (didn't even have a table, had 1 chair, poor management, TV did not work, internet did not work, kids were on the property, that was supposed to be a 21+ property. The property has no security, the room didn't even have a dead bolt! Completely uncomfortable experience wouldn't hadnstayed here if it were free!

Honestly, this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. It feels more like a motel than a hotel. The walls are extremely thin—you can hear everything. The room I stayed in had visible cracks in the ceiling, and the patchwork was very poorly done. This is the first time my kids have ever wanted to leave a hotel early. The pictures on the website are very misleading. The property is advertised as a spa, but when I tried to book a massage, nothing was available. Guests are told to text if they need anything. I requested bath soap and didn’t receive a response until over an hour later—by that time, I was already asleep. I woke up hearing what sounded like running water and thought there was a flood. When I got up to check, I realized it was water coming from a neighboring room because someone was showering. I even took a video of the water. Overall, this stay was extremely disappointing, and I would not recommend this hotel to families.

The hot water at this property was completely out during my stay. I was informed of this by the property and told I could move to a different location, but the alternative offered was not comparable to the room I had booked, so I declined. This occurred around 3:00 PM on a Saturday. I was then told that because it was already 3:00 PM and I had “used the amenities for the day,” I would not be refunded for that day. As someone on a three-week trip staying here for five days, this forced me to pack all of my luggage and immediately secure another hotel. Management suggested that I could remain at this property and walk to another location to shower, which is completely unacceptable. Loss of hot water is a fundamental service failure, and attempting to shift the burden onto the guest is not reasonable. The staff were dismissive, inflexible, and hid behind “policy” rather than taking responsibility for a basic utility failure. The handling of this situation was poor from start to finish. I would not stay here again and do not recommend this property.

For a “resort&spa” this is super lacking. I asked for fresh towels three days in a row and was told they dont have any and to come back the next day. Any time i asked for something, they just told me to walk to CVS and buy it there (its a 17 min walk to cvs) The rooms were never cleaned with no fresh towels, they just made the bed and rehung the same towels. No extra toiletries given. The gym is closed indefinitely. Turns out this same resort own a few other ones and a few restaurants where you get a discount but no one told us so we paid $50 for 2 croissants and a coffee. Overall, the only good thing about this place was the location and the fact that i didnt see a single cockroach or bedbug in the place. Otherwise its an extremely overpriced motel.
