Property and hotel room furniture was outdated and in need of serious renovations overhaul. One building looked run downed and abandoned. There was no hot water to take a shower, lukewarm mostly. The pool, ponds, and waterfalls were shut off, which was very unsightly from my balcony room. Staff did not clean out all the debris until the last day of my stay. However, the staff was friendly and very accommodating. The beach bar drinks were top tier and the beach restaurant food was so good. I love the fact that I could walk right out of my room and be on the beach. I even enjoyed watching the different exotic birds and iguanas. If you ask me if I am willing to stay again? The answer is yes. I just hope that my next visit The Hotel on the Cay wil have more of a modern look with a twist of what it was when it first opened its doors. The potential to bring it back to life is there. Its a true diamond in the ruff.

This property is old and dated but still an ok place to stay. Bring your own beach towel to save yourself some trouble. We had one between our family of four but we don't mind that kind of thing. We saw several folks totally unable to get beach towels because they were out. There are new owners so the property will be renovated in the future but a simple thing to do would be buy more towels...people staying at a hotel on the beach need one. Also no place to rinse the sand from your feet so you have to use the shower. I bet Housekeeping loves that. There was a spicket but not operational. The one thing that really rubbed me wrong is that you have to rent an umbrella for the beach if you want one. Chairs are free. Its just very cheap to make hotel guests rent an umbrella when there is so much to overlook it seems like they could just include it like literally every other beach hotel does. Seems weird but of all the issues that was the most distasteful.

We stayed for one night. The property was very sad, run down, minimally cared for. Empty dirty pools. Our room was pretty shabby, but had a bed, functioning shower, and a door that locked. Would definitely not stay there again. But i talked to another couple that thought it was OK for their needs, so i guess everyone is different. It must have been a beautiful place "back in the day" when it was maintained.
