Resort was in a perfect location affording a lovely pool with direct beach access . Close to shops and restaurants with great options . Disappointed that the resort restaurant did not afford many options for breakfast lunch or dinner and didn’t have take out coffee after breakfast . Personnel were both engaging and welcoming ….room was dated but clean and comfortable ! Atmosphere was tranquil and quiet …

Clean, comfortable rooms, nice bed-linens & mattress, nice bathroom. Recently renovated. Beautiful pool with convenient pool bar. Steps from the beautiful Gulf beach. Clever wrist bands that serve as room keys and allow access to amenities. Would welcome additional ecco-friendly enhancements (like replacing small plastic shampoo/conditioner/lotion bottles).

The staff we interacted with were very nice and friendly. The room was clean and the pool area was immaculate. And the beach area was pristine and the lounges set up everyday was a big plus. Most importantly when we had a problem with our final billing I spoke to Brenda and she was extremely helpful in getting it corrected immediately. That is great customer service. If there is one thing to add it would be that they might, in the future have rooms that are a little bigger and have furniture for sitting down to watch TV and on that note have TV's that you can have the option to stream. Last but not least is that they should have an elevator for the second floor for people who cannot navigate steps with heavy travel bags.
