"Loved it"

"The hotel facilities were excellent. The beach was as described - wonderful. Unfortunately we were located on the 5th floor with no functioning elevator and small children. The room layout was as described but the decor and condition of the room was severely dated and in need of refurbishment. Stay away from the Mahi block until a refurbishment takes place and the elevator is fixed (otherwise you are forced to enter the block via the car park). Away from the room, the family had an excellent vacation "

"Another overpriced Florida ripoff in a region that is similar to the Jersey Shore and not an upscale destination. Add the per night occupancy taxes aimed at sticking it to the tourists who do not vote in the state and it became a very expensive stay for what felt like a semi-maintained establishment. Property is old and in need of an upgrade. For example, door of the room was hard to open, as was the front entrance which is difficult to go through when trying to carry luggage. The layout of the hotel is a little convoluted, and the elevators are rundown (they tend to close quickly, too). The small pool was okay and the Rum Runner restaurant is average and currently noisy due to construction of new restaurant and pool, which was not mentioned in advance when booking was done. It’s the only option for breakfast and the service was slow. The room itself wasn’t bad and a good size. But there was no luggage rack for suitcases and the safe deposit box is down near the floor with shelves above, which makes it difficult for those who are older and struggle more to bend over. There was no room service during our two night stay. This property is geared toward families and teenagers, so it’s a little noisy at times but quiet when time to sleep. My biggest objection was a 5 star price for a 3 star hotel. I have been in many different hotels of different levels of quality in many different locations and this was below average when comparing the quality versus the price. "

"Beach view excellent staff and fantastic stay"

"Resort was very nice and relaxing. Staff was always very helpful. Rooms are nice. I would definitely stay here again. "

"Yes"

"I was in the area for a business meeting so my family went with me to hang out at the beach. Overall, the staff was not very friendly and seemed put off to help. The hotel is historic and cool, but rooms are small and for the price you would think other things would be more accommodating and nice. Prices were quite high for everything. The elevator system is awful and took so long that we used the stairs the whole stay. They were filming a show 2 of the 3 days we were there which shut down one of the avg sized pools (only have two) requiring all guests to cram into the other area. Filming also shut down the lobby and elevator area for an extensive time. I asked the front desk (two others beside me also asked) about why we’re not told about the filming and if there would be a discount. Front desk person just smirked and said that would not be happening. At the Society restaurant for dinner, my daughter who has an egg and nut allergy (we disclose to everyone) had to order a chicken soft taco with cheese. This was an off menu item they said they could do. It showed up with cubed chicken that was barely warm with a slice of Kraft cheese laying on it. It was disgusting. After voicing frustration, the manager who saw the same thing took off 10%. I don’t mind paying for things, especially for good service and nice amenities but this stay was well below expectations."

"I got a standard room for four people, and it was really small. No room anywhere to put any suitcases but other than that everything was excellent. Definitely will be going back and getting a bigger room next time."

"Easy parking with many choices of shops around it"
