This place was one of the worst vacation properties I have ever stayed at. First off they have all these amenities that you can supposedly use, such as a sauna, whirpool, and steam room, but when you call to book it they ask if you are an owner ( its a timeshare property) and make it really difficult to use any of the "extra" amenities. Next, we payed a fair amount for 3 nights to be stck in a tiny room overlooking a parking lot, the air conditioner barely worked. The settings were freezing cold or stuffy and hot. We were on the 3rd floor, and it was raining pretty hard one of the days we were there. There was water pouring from the ceiling in the hall by our room onto the carpet, and no one ever did anything about it. Our room also had water damage on the celing, and cracks and chips in the funiture. Everything was just very sub- par. It is also pretty far away from the real beach and other fun things to do. I would not stay here again.

Surprised
The stay was good but didn’t know about the timeshare presentation, because it wasn’t mentioned on hotels.com when the room was booked. Then when it was brought to the attention to hotel.com the rep tried to play dumb but undercover will make you lose business.

very misleading about the property, one restaurant claimed a full menu but didn’t even have a kitchen. pool closes at 7:30 pm, lady that took out the trash by the pool was rude. the floor in my room was so dirty it turned the bottom of everyone’s feet black. balcony was flooded with 2inches of water. one restaurant served me a buffalo chicken wrap with a hair on it, never discounted anything off the bill. definitely will be choosing another place for the next trip.

There was a saw in our room. When we told the front desk. They said they would send someone up but they never did, then the charged us over 400 for possible room service fees, eventually they refunded it 5 business days later. Then when we did call for toothbrush, room service never showed up, we got our own extra towels, rhe air conditoner was so loud it sounded like someone was shaking the doors . We stayed here in 2017 and the service was completely different.

We requested a king size balcony water view, but half the view was blocked by a wall next to us. That was disappointing and no bedside table next to me. Throw pillows and a stool would have been nice for the sofa. Our coffee maker was broken (they replaced it) and we had to get water glasses. None in our room. Comfortable bed !!!
