Very convenient location for skyway bridge and no additional charge for parking. Unfortunately, the front staff double charged me for my pet stay. They said they'd figure it out, but after staying for 2 nights they still hadn't fixed it at check out. Now they are saying to give them several more days to figure out how to fix their double charge mistake.. After I physically went to the front desk to check out atleast an hour early, the same front staff forgot to actually click the check out in their system or something, because they then sent me a text saying I "missed check out." Overall, convenient location and very pet friendly. But I would not come back until their staff figures out what they're doing, and they refund what they over charged me.

It went bad from the start. First, we arrived earlier due to our flight coming in sooner. Marina said she was going to help us out the early check in fee and talk to the manager to get it waived. We explained to her that we had already paid it and she said she would look into it. We went to the beach and relaxed. At noon, our rooms were not ready, despite paying the early check in fees. Once we DID get into our rooms the front desk called to tell me they would not be waiving the early check in fee and we already had a discount by using Expedia (???). We took a nap and were awoken by a band playing, apparently they don’t mention that your room will be next to the stage when they “upgrade” you to the marina rooms. You’re not by the bridge AT ALL despite what the photos show. The smell was so bad when you walked out that we could barely breathe. The bathrooms were disgusting and the shower had things I’ve never seen before growing in them. The food was overpriced, the front desk (mainly Marina) wasn’t helpful at all, but the wait staff were amazing. The beach is incredibly small (again, angles are everything with pictures).The rooms are also like motels, not inside like a hotel so there were random people wandering around despite the “security” at the entrance.

This place is a gem! My room had a balcony that was directly on the water with a stunning view and a hammock. While not entirely private (you could walk around the building on the sea wall), each unit had small privacy walls which were perfect and did not impede the view. The best part was the restaurant/bar which was on the property. The staff were so friendly and sweet, my grilled shrimp were delicious, and my bartender (I think her name was Brittney, I have a horrible memory) was the absolute best! I have already recommended it to several friends.

Friendly resort, not great for ocean swimming

This property was nice! A great little resort-style hotel. You can tell that it was refurbished from an older hotel. They tried to give it a trendy, modern feel. All & all our brief stay was really nice. The restaurant food was delicious, great lively bar area with live music. The layout was nice with pools & shuffleboard. One complaint is that there was no elevator near our 2nd floor room. The stairs were rough for a person with back issues. The main complaint is the beach water. Honestly, it was smelly & gross! The main reason we wanted to stay here was to swim in the ocean. If you want to swim in the beautiful ocean, this is NOT the place. Aside from the lack of elevators and the unacceptable "ocean" water, this really was a nice place.
