Needs updating bring elevator up to code

The elevator was not up to code and didn’t even have any inspection reports. The buttons did not work in the elevator. The water pressure was not the greatest, but the service of the staff and the restaurant was fantastic. I do not think the resort fee adds up to the value that you get considering you can get a lot more if you had just south a bit or just a bit when it is considered a resort.

We had a great family stay at Delray Sands! All of the employees were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the large heated pool and hot tub. They were great even when we had bad weather. We also loved that it’s right on the beach! The restaurant was perfect . We ate breakfast outside overlooking the ocean and returned for a delicious dinner! Highly recommended hotel!

This is no resort. This place is a DUMP and infested with cockroaches!!! I checked into a dirty room with smudged mirrors, hair on the countertops, dusty coffee machine and lamps next to the bed, I’m nit not picky so I over looked that, however, when my daughter opened the toilet to find urine in the toilet, that was the final straw. I called the front desk to complain and they sent up the housekeeping staff whom were rude when they came to clean the toilet. Then, I woke up at 1 am and found a cockroach on my toothbrush in the bathroom!!! I sent a text message to the guest services that has been texting me regarding our stay and sent pictures. I asked to be switched rooms but they only offered to move us to a worse location room on the first floor with a view of the parking lot. No thanks, I don’t want to be closer to the ground where there are MORE cockroaches!! So I just asked that my room be thoroughly cleaned and sprayed for bugs. After going out to dinner tonight, I returned to the room to find MORE cockroaches in the bathroom!! I killed a baby cockroach on the wall and another one next to the shower. I called the front desk to complain again and they just sent someone to spray our room. This is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE at a so called “resort” that I paid more than $500/nt for plus their additional $40/nt resort fee. Ridiculous! I will never stay at an Opal Grand Property again.

Overpriced Motel

This hotel is severely overpriced for what it is. It feels like an elevated motel. For $1050+tax CAD, I don’t expect to have a door directly to the outside with a gaping hole under the door, dirty & chipped walls, paper cups individually wrapped in plastic for coffee and a wall unit for AC. I needed to put a towel to cover the hole under the door. Also the pool is very average. I will not be returning to this hotel.
