    Proximity to that beach, activities to keep kids and adults busy, most if the staff was great. We chose this resort initially due to due the bedroom available within the room so that our toddler could go to bed earlier than us.

    I wish we would of had a room with ocean view but we booked late so we had to take what was available.

    Loved the outside restaurant, the cafe and having the private beach area. Over all it was a great place to stay and would definitely stay again.

    People claimed pool chairs from early in the morning by throwing towels down. This was against the posted rules. We struggled to find one open lounge chair over several days. This is not the property’s fault, more a reflection on guests but it was a bit surprising.

    The property has extraordinary oceanfront and grounds with many activities. The staff also made our stay special through kindness. The food at the restaurants was a good value and delicious. The pools were sparkling clean even in a busy spring break week. This is a rare independent resort that we can’t wait to return to. Very easy vacation, close to both the airport and downtown yet secluded with a gigantic beach away from crowds.

    Pricey boutique. Location is nice, close to airport but if you do not have a car then it’s tough to walk to get food on your own or stores.

    Classy, great for families. Provided free beach chairs. Great view from balcony. Beautiful landscaping, friendly staff.

    The hotel staff was great and very friendly but the service (mostly at restuarants) was pretty slow and with little kids, it was a little more difficult. I would recommend the quick restaurants with kids.

    We had great 1st floor access to the putting green and easy access to pool and beach paths. The rooms were spacious and great for our family of 4.

    The third generation owners have figured out how to maximise their income with no personal consideration or attention. Opening the resort to nonresident members makes it very crowded and noisy.

    This resort has an amazing location on the beach and well-maintained facilities

    It is an extremely older property, older furniture and look. There is no complimentary shuttle from the airport nor to the cruise docks. All transportation is third party outsourced. That was not clearly stated.

    The location is excellent for cruise departures

    It’s a cashless facility. All food, drink, supply charges go to the room so difficult to monitor what you are spending.

    Plenty for all family members to do. We didn’t leave the resort the whole time we were there.

    The hotel is very close the the airport. We were on the fifth floor overlooking the pool/ocean and all we heard were airplanes and screaming children. The food tasted the same at all the restaurants. We went to the fine dining establishment on the property and the waitress was awful. The "steak" was not filet mignon. Kids menu is the same at every restaurant in the resort. Birds are everywhere--one flew into me as I laid out near the adult pool. Literally flew into me. Rules are laid out and not followed. For example, no towels to reserve chairs--by 9am I couldn't find a seat among all the towels on chairs. No kids in the adult pool, teens in the adult pool, sign out towels, people grabbing many towels at a time. We did go on easter break which I understand is busy but it was too loud and not relaxing for us. Parents were swinging kids on the hammocks (so much I thought they would break) and destroying the resort with workers watching and not doing anything. I am a flexible, open mom who likes to have fun. I felt bad--these kids (and parents) were trashing the place.

    We liked the pools and the proximity to the beach. The rooms were somewhat outdated but held comforts such as phone charging alarm clocks, fridge/microwave, and safe. Breakfast buffet was very nice.

    We had an executive suite so the space/square footage was great, but the views from all of the windows and our small balcony was of stair wells and hallways. There is no option to use cash or credit card on the property- you have to charge to your room. We prefer using credit cards so we do not have one huge bill at checkout. There is a lot of metal furniture on the property which is definitely necessary around the pool. Some wooden lounge furniture (sofas and coffee tables) in the area near the soda shop would be a great upgrade.

    We loved the proximity to the large private beach and the suites that accommodate families. We also loved all the family friendly experience options like mini gulf, hammocks on the beach, etc. The brunch buffet is actually affordable!

    The place was nice but some of the buildings looked old and needed updating. The food was also very plain. The staff were great, very accommodating. However there was one incident when we got pizza and we tried to eat outside the soda shop and security came and berated us so we moved however every other night there other families did the same thing and did not get yelled at. Either do it to all or none at all.
