Great Beach Vacation!
Great location. Newly remodeled rooms - very nice! Every room faces the beach. Great pool and lots of kid activities. Jetty's was great for breakfast (and kids eat free!). Close to everything we wanted to do. Would definitely stay here again.

Great for families!
Everything was great the first 2 nights! We loved it. Pat was wonderful with the kids, the rooms were SO clean and we all had a blast because of the amazing staff!!! We have had a lot of face painting, but this resort's face painter was THE BEST!!! Breakfast was AMAZING!! Activities were great - we loved everything!!!!
I am a bit upset because last night (our last night) I was awake all night long and scared. Around 2:21 am I looked at the clock - the guests next door to us were screaming and yelling at each other and being very loud -- banging against the walls. I secured all of our doors and prayed to God that we would be safe through their fighting, but I knew that they had young kids, so I was overly anxious hoping that their little guys could weather a storm like what kept me up. I contemplated calling the front desk and the police. After an afternoon of pondering what happened, I called the hotel tonight, and first was hung up on. Second, the manager on duty did not care to discuss. It was very clearly a big issue (not only to me - even the breakfast waitresses made it clear how unruly this particular group was - I'm shocked they were awake for breakfast!)
I never would write a negative review about our fun time. But being treated like this when trying to report a SERIOUS situation is not acceptable.

Hotel is renovating. Notice was not given that there is construction going on. A discount for the inconvenience should have been offered. “Resort” should be removed from the name, there were no resort type activities or accommodations.

Terrible Hotel
We booked and paid top dollar for this room months in advance and picked this property because it was an on the beach resort. We paid top dollar and could have stayed at numerous hotels for 1/2 the price. But being a Resort, let's stay here. We were given a room that had a foul odor to it, was a little dirty and had a fantastic ocean view of their boiler room! No ocean view at all. Should have cancelled the room and gone somewhere else, but we were leaving on a bad boy 10-day Caribbean Cruise the next day, so we just went to bed. I would not recommend this property to anyone. Stay in a real resort! There are plenty down there! This place was a joke!!!

Terrible experience.
Constructions is happening which was very loud. We were out in handicap room on the first floor right next to entrance door and the elevators. And near pool entrance door people were talking all night and in and out all night. We got no sleep.
