We come to Commander each year in September. We love the location. There is plenty around that is walkable. The staff is amazing. Special shoutout to Mo at the front desk and Devon who handles the beach chairs and umbrellas. They were both very friendly and attentive.

You are charging guests for parking with you while I’m already paying you for my hotel room and service. Your parking lot is a piece of my vacation and if you are charging me extra then I’ll be right next door with your competition not paying for parking overnight

Staff was very nice, but the photos of the room were very deceiving. The room was significantly smaller than shown in photos. It showed a small dining table and chairs, a sofa and a large counter space but our room didn’t have any of those things.
