I booked this resort mostly for the waterfall pool, on arrival we found out it was being work on and not in use, the smaller pool was next to the bar and was I use, but not a comfortable space, next to the loud bar.

The location was absolutely perfect! If you are a light sleeper, and go to bed before 11:00 like us, the music will keep you up! The elevator was not working and we had to carry our luggage up to the third floor which was not fun! The kitchen could have been stocked up with more items as well!

Our room was awesome! Totally renovated from the hurricane so everything was new and fresh. Still work being done on the property but the new waterfall pool will be beautiful. We especially loved the Tiki bar. Entertainment and staff were excellent. Location is wonderful too. So close to beach and SOB. Thanks for a wonderful stay!! We’ll be back.

Close to beach and plenty of bars and restaurants. Parking and traffic were a bit tense. Staff were very friendly especially at the Tiki bar in facility. Although not as big or nice as Margaritaville it’s cheaper and we had no complaints. Julie in Timi bar was exceptional.

Great location. Easy walk to beach etc. Tiki bar and restaurant are great. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The rooms need attention. Floor covering was chipped, had to search for a blanket, tv in living room was inoperable. Basically, could use an upgrade on the rooms

The room was clean. The staff was awesome. It was just so loud. I felt like I was back in my 20s. Not what I was looking for. I wanted a quiet place that was close to the beach. Also, got "Upgraded" from a Queen to two full size beds. Not my idea of an upgrade, my husand and I slept separate. It was sooooo loud and so many drunk idiots, hard to relax. Will not be back ever!

We realize they are recovering from a hurricane and it is obvious they are working diligently towards a fully functioning facility. The room was clean, beds comfortable. We expressed the need for a few repairs in the bathroom when leaving and the need for an exterminator. The facility is close to the beach, easily walked and easily walked to restaurants and bars.

Room was very clean but needed updating. Had a night with screaming neighbors and slamming doors. Food was ok at Tiki Bar but not great. Not really a family place- the only pool was pretty much an extension of the bar with a lot of people smoking. Room faced the new pool construction and the Tiki Bar so pretty noisy very late and very early with sliding door doing little to contain noise. We pretty much just used the room to sleep and left the property the rest of the time. The few staff members we encountered were pleasant

Lots of updates needed. We stayed here last year in different unit & loved it.. this year the unit was rundown. Handle to patio was broke, tv stand broken, toilet paper holder broken, can’t open a cabinet because microwave put in place s too big.. floor was peeling away. It was clean, but that’s about the only bonus.
