Pros +
- Beachfront property, free breakfast buffet
- This is a beautiful resort! Right on the ocean! We enjoyed the beach chairs, the DAILY housekeeping, tiki bar, pickleball courts, the general store on site and the texts with the daily activities. Would love to bring our kids back for the kids activities!
- Really great beach. Good breakfast for COVID buffet Nice view of gulf from hotel lobby restaurant.
Cons -
- Active construction zone not on website,unfinished drywall in room, 4th floor & no elevator service
- It would have been nice to be able to select which condo you were getting before check in since they are all separately owned. Also, the activity desk got very crowded at times. One of our rooms wasn't available until slightly after check in time.
- Noisy music by pool, might be fun for some. Lots of kids in jacuzzi so could not use.
