The property has nice decor, in both the rooms and the common spaces. The pool and grounds are attractive and well-maintained. However, we stayed for 3 nights, and maid service never came to our room even though we were out most of the day. We did not call management the first day and didn't bother after day 2 since we were leaving the following morning. Also, there was no microwave in the hotel room, which made it less appealing since we were traveling with children. There was a small fridge, but mostly it was for "mini-bar" items, so not useful for keeping bottled water or juice, etc., on hand. We ate one meal at the hotel, which was breakfast, and it was very nicely presented with a "gourmet" flair. Parking consisted of either one small self-park lot, uncovered, or valet parking. We were forced to valet park 2 of the 3 nights we stayed, and all the visible valet spots were full, so my vehicle was around the corner somewhere out of sight. It's a safe area, but I'd rather know where my vehicle is at all times. The 4 stars is due to it being an attractive property, but more suitable for business or conference attendees versus families.

After a rough check-in, we received a warm reach-out from management and the rest of our stay was excellent. Great facilities, great location, friendly staff, clean, etc. Maybe some kinks to work out still with transition of ownership, but we’d stay again for sure.

The property was extremely well maintained, we truly enjoyed the well kept grounds between the building and the beach. The landscaping contained a wonderful variety and was in full color gorgeous. All the staff was extremely courteous and friendly. It was unfortunate that the pool was closed due to "mechanical issues." We would stay again.

Many changes to the facility and service have been made including the entrance, much more accomodating, the pool area access, now from the main lobby, and a new bar off the main lobby. A room snack and drink allowance and gratis beach chairs and umbrellas are a great change. We also enjoyed the Fellow hot water makers and Huck coffee in the rooms! Great idea.

Property was well kept. The only complaint I have was the pool was kind of cloudy but by the day we were leaving it had cleared considerably. Everything else outweighed the cloudiness of the pool. Will definitely stay again.
