Overall, I have ro say this was a terrible experience for the amount of money we paid. First, on top of paying a premium at this "resort," they also charge you $25 a day to park your car there, which is apparently buried somewhere in the fine print when you make the reservation (I couldn't find it anywhere in my reservation and was surprised when I received a text the day before we arrived notifying me of this). I could understand this fee if there were enough activities within walking distance or they provided transportation to places, but this is not an all-inclusive resort. Second, all the staff is always on their phone. When we went down to the beach, I actually had to get someone's attention because all three attendants were on their phone. And, surprisingly, when I texted staff for something I needed (a couple of extra pillows), my text was ignored and I had to go to the front desk. When I got to the front desk, the two people there told me I could have just texted and when I informed them that I did, they found my text and I was answered with "oh." You would also think that for $500+ a night and because they claim to be a resort, you would get standard room service every day, but no, you have to request it. When I found this out, I requested it the 2nd day we were there, but they didnt do it until the 3rd day, so we slept in sandy sheets for 2 nights (it is also impossible to not get sand all over here as the floors are tile and they dont come in and vacuum every day).

We enjoyed our stay but felt as some of amenities could be improved. Housekeeping unfortunately didn't speak English very well and didn't understand I wanted her to come back to clean. The dining options were very limited. The rooms were okay, but the bottom of one of bathroom doors was damaged, one of the faucets in the shower leaked to the lower faucet and the bathroom door was extremely hard to open and close. The location was fantastic proximity to the ocean but the pool was always full. For the amount of money per room and then the parking fees and resort fees, it seemed expensive. The front desk staff and the spa staff were very friendly!!

The only good experience was the beach-it's beautiful! Our reception was terrible being an Expedia customer - just given our room key and charged an additional $25.00 per day parking fee. Given a resort map with our building noted, and another with the Resort's amenities The facility overall is needing updating and repairs.. Our room had a leaking toilet - seal was broken.. water collected on the floor. AC was extremely loud - reported the toilet issue and no one wanted to address. It became an ordeal to have reception understand! Maintenance finally came to the front desk, and I had to walk him up to the room to show what was happening and he agreed could not fix issue in short time. Asked of an alternate room an told they were full up. Asked for refund and the woman was not sure how to address being an Expedia booking-finally after I became loud and more vocal at the front desk, a manager came forward and gave us another room. The room was better, but we had no room cleaning service and going to the front desk to inquire was of no help! I finally stopped a staff cleaning woman on our floor, and she pleaded she was not responsible for our end of the hall for room service, but after I pushed for help, she did go and find who was and they finally cleaned the room - our check out was the next morning. The hallway and staircase had a gas odor every morning and dissipated by late afternoon of note the indoor pool and restaurant on lower level This property is understaffed!

Resort rooms were a good size and clean, grounds were well kept-beautiful flowers and vast landscaping. Beach Bar and Jonah’s Pub on site were convenient and tasty menu. Beach was beautiful- plenty of space, soft white sand and warm ocean!!!

First trip to the Cape. First off, there was no dresser in the room! Family of 5 and I had to rummage through a suitcase every time someone needed something! Didn’t realize how much I’d miss a dresser until there wasn’t one. The private beachfront was nice, chairs provided as well as umbrellas, only if there’s no breeze though! Was slightly windy and we couldn’t get an umbrella, so we baked in the sun! Not a lot of amenities, like the website said volleyball, there was none. They are under the same parent company as the Riviera a few doors down, so while they share access, it’s not convenient. I feel like it was overpriced for what you get, but I guess the cape in the summer is pricey anyways. Would stay again, but only during the week. Weekend was already quite busy and ran out of room for parking quickly on a Thursday evening.
