Tropical Breeze Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arrival the resort was able to accommodate an early check in! Property was maintained well for the most part. I noticed some beer cans in the courtyard on the ground. Staff was very helpful and nice! Room was clean, climate controlled, tvs easy to manage. Shower was great. We appreciated the beach towels and the beach chairs that are included in the stay. We were let down slightly by the location, where we were located was significantly further from the beach than anticipated. The resort is split up with 100-200 on one side of the road and 300's on the other. This made the walk to the beach longer. I was sick on the first night there and ordered DoorDash from Walgreens. Be aware that the addresses are not accurate on Canal Rd. They delivered across the street instead of to our room. It was quickly remedied but make sure to be very specific and inquire about the actual delivery address when you check in. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be back!!!"

When is the best time to go to Riviera Dunes?

If you're planning a trip around the school holidays, particularly during spring break or Christmas, you'll find the weather excellent, but it's also the busiest time. Booking your accommodation and activities well in advance is highly recommended to secure the best options.

For those who prefer a quieter experience and don't mind a bit more heat and humidity, the shoulder months of October and June can also be good.
