It is a nice place with LOTS of pickleball! A bit run down. The gym has great equipment but also serves as a storage dump. The restaurant, BayView is fabulous! Also had a fabulous massage at the spa. Unfortunately someone stole my shoes at the pool. Otherwise it was exactly as I expected.

Great location, right on the beach and walking distance to center of town. Sport fishing fleet is based here and pickle ball Club is nextdoor. I think there’s decent fishing right on the beach in front of hotel. Restaurants in hotel are excellent but not cheap and staff is friendly. We would come back here anytime!

Great fishing and family resort. Enjoyed the pool, jacuzzi, lounging, restaurants. They have some great people working there, can improve on having more customer focus staff in the guft shops. Those older ladies were rude. Otherwise, Aracely, Norma, Anival, and yhe bartenders in the morning are all wonderful. But the best was put captain Chuy in the Ruthbaby boat was amazing!!!

Feels dated, rooms are like prison bunks, people next to us smoking so we could smell it in our room, eerie lack of people, FOOD BITS IN THE POOL (which was also murky and overwhelming smell of chlorine), beach access was nice. Overall a bizarre experience and fine if you are wanting to go to Mexico, but not be in Mexico.

The property seems as if its hey day has passed. The rooms are ok but there were issues with small bugs. The common areas are somewhat kept up but the small pool in the garden area was never cleaned or operational but it didn't have a sign stating it was closed only staff sayin when asked that it wasn't operational. The rinse shower from the beach is barely operational b/c the handles fall off the valves. Not having complimentary coffee or a way to get ice for the room seemed cheap. The inability to charge dining or other items to the room besides the pool bar is inconvenient.
