Our stay at the Beachcomber wasn’t terrible. My main issue was that I was told I could check in at 4 and when I got there at 4:05 my room wasn’t ready. I was told they didn’t know when it would be ready and they would call my cell when it was ready. We went to eat and an hour and fifteen minutes still no call. After returning to the property we had to wait an additional 20 minutes. This was unacceptable. I didn’t have much interaction with the staff after checking in but the ladies that were at the front desk when I tried to check in weren’t very much help. The property was a little dated but it was clean and the room setup served our needs because we had six people with us. I don’t know if I’d stay here again because it’s a little discouraging to drive four hours and when we get to the property after the stated check in time, we couldn’t get a room until almost 2 hours later.

I liked how convienient it was as far as location, we were ocean front and just minutes from great restaurants and pier park shopping center. The only thing I would complain about is that Our room had a kitchen but did not have a strainer or a sponge which made washing dishes difficult in that small space. Overall I had a great experience!
