The staff was great! The fact that they were under construction was a bit disappointing. To hear drills in the morning was not appreciated. The outdoor construction did not bother us, just the indoor. The room was clean, very average in appearance. Have never had to pay for parking before, just caught me off guard, guess it’s the new way these days. But overall, loved the location and the amenities. Will stay again and would recommend.

We would love to come back to this property again-after the remodel is completed. We had a beautiful view, clean room, friendly staff, and good food. We could walk to the park and ride bikes and the segways. The beach was great. We weren’t told about the remodel that was in progress. before our visit. Workers did their best to keep work contained, but the generator was below our balcony. It was all we heard during day hours. The remodel will be beautiful and enhance a great property.

This was a very nice property. However, I put leftovers in the fridge for them to then freeze. I can’t find a single microwave in the entire hotel which is absurd. Motel 6 even has microwaves. The walls also must be made out of paper as I can hear literally everything that goes on in the hallway. I shouldn’t be woken up on Sunday morning at 8am because of noise in the hallway.

Room was clean and beautiful. They’re building a new pool so there was some construction going on under our room, but they didn’t disturb us, and didn’t start working early. It was quite a walk to the beach, but that’s only temporary until the new pool is finished and they reopen that beach access. My only minor complaint is there is no restroom close to the temporary beach access that I could find, so it’s quite a walk to the lobby or current pool restrooms.

Breakfast is not free. The parking is far from the check in counter and you have to pay for it! You can't bring your own drinks or a cooler to the pool. The fire alarm randomly went off one night and the front desk staff did nothing about it. If you book with expedia or anything other than Hilton, you probably won't get the room you booked. Our room was just open when we got to it and the rooms are so far away from the front desk if you get in the 50s + numbers. The view of the beach was nice and the balacony, but other than that it was a hassle and nothing was done to fix the hotels mistakes.

Parking is inconvenient, especially if you self-park ($15/day). Valet parking ($22/day) shares the same area that is 400' from the hotel front entrance. Nothing is in walking distance (except the state park across the road). Guests will either walk to and from the parking lot 2-3 times a day, or wait and tip a valet attendant 2-3 times a day. This situation becomes worse in inclement weather. The pool is ordinary. The only access from the sprawling resort property to the beach is via a long boardwalk from the SW corner. Not especially convenient. Going anywhere at this property is a trek. A pair of chaise lounges with an umbrella at the beach will cost you $45 a day. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Walk-in shower was roomy with strong water pressure. Each room comes with a pair of 16 oz. bottle of water @ $3.00. Porter trolleys are not available to guests.

Location was great, hotel was very nice. Staff across their functions were friendly, always engaging, impressed they were busy working regardless day or night. Staff, food, and location will have me book again. Foodcraft breakfast & dinner was excellent, we'll try The Perch next time, worth the price. The Dragonfly service was very slow, especially if you sit at the bar, and food and drinks were underwhelming and overpriced, except for the wings. Room was fine, seemed a bit tight, and the big stand up lamp in room was weird and was in the way. The bed was maybe too soft, and felt like an undersized King, but was okay. It would be nice to have a fan available. Otherwise, bathrooms clean, towels were good quality. Shower was large stand up but smaller single showerhead needs to be large to cover two people. Marsh view was fine, but wished we knew the roadway was right there. We liked the public balconies with seating and ocean views on each level. Mostly dipped in the ocean yet pool was nice. We will book a different style room next time so not adjourning and see how it is. Do not like the idea of an expanded pool area and dune removal for 2026. If I wanted a typical resort feel, I’d book in Orange Beach.

The lobby is very beautiful and desk staff are good. The breakfast buffet is first rate! It's a first class conference hotel and resort. Extremely eco-friendly. All staff are very friendly and helpful. I was very disappointed in having no convenient beach access. There was pool onstruction right in front of the balcony. The balcony furniture was very uncomfortable. My room was a long walk from the lobby. The in-room water is $3 a bottle. You are required to join Hilton Rewards to access the "free" Internet. Kids run around the hallways making noise and unsupervised. Valet parking is basically required because parking is very far away. Valet parking takes a while to get your car. The facility is really too large for mature people to easily navigate. I will stay at other beach resorts because this one is not for me.

1. We were happy to get a Gulf view room and were happy to pay for this. No one disclosed that our view was over very loud daily pool construction. Power washers running early. Cement trucks backing into the area. Loud. We wanted rest and relaxation. 2. Bugs. Sand flies in our bathroom. Dozens of them. Nowhere else. We’re told that we must be letting them in. We spend most days out if the room so I doubt this. 3. Beach access. Close boardwalk was closed due to already mentioned construction. Forced to walk to opposite end of hotel (and it is very long) to go to tbe beach. Horrible on my bad knees. 4. Expensive. No discount for construction area. Not even mentioned.

The balcony view was nice but there was construction and saws running right under our room during our stay. The parking was also a great distance from the hotel so that was the most inconvenient aspect of our stay. They offer valet parking but of course that cost extra if you wanted that option. Over all the teip was ok but parking was a disappointment for sure
