Nice pool, small rocky beach, clean hotel

Hotel property is clean, a little outdated, unlike the adjacent property (Embassy Suites). Ask about towel service for the pool. We were not given cards to get towels at the pool and had to go back inside to convince the day staff we were never given them at check-in. While you have access to the pool area until 3 p.m. checkout, you are required to return towels at checkout, which is indoors, not poolside. - Nice pool area with different areas, hot tub jets did not work, no diving wells - Beach area is small, lots of marsh and seagrass, rocky, we sustained several cuts trying to swim out to the deeper water, but overall the area is shallow and no waves. Watch out for sea urchins. - There are only outdoor showers, none in pool bathrooms which would be helpful to have with small children. - Dog friendly beach and grass where we saw owners go on walks. - Kitchenette and washer/dryer were great to have, though a bit small and loud. Run it while you are away from the room. - Rooms have a bright flashing lights in bedrooms and living room, which made it hard to sleep. They flashed every 10 minutes. - Vanity sink was clogged and they sent someone up right away. We did not ask for them to fix it immediately since it was late at night. - Room (King and fold out sofa) were fine, plenty of sheets and blankets were given to us because we paid for an extra guest - Hotel ran out of shampoo and conditioner so we were only given extra soap bars and body wash gels.

Our stay at Aquarius Vacation Club had both positives and negatives. The location was great, making it easy to enjoy the surrounding area. However, one of the main reasons we booked this hotel was the advertised no-pets policy. Unfortunately, we stayed on a floor where the owner had both a dog and a bird, which made noise throughout the day and night, disrupting our stay. Cleanliness also fell short of expectations. We were not provided with washcloths, the floors felt damp, and overall maintenance appeared lacking. The hotel and pool are in desperate need of renovations, and even basic functions like closing the doors required slamming them shut. Additionally, it was disappointing to learn that despite paying for a stay with beach access, guests are required to rent lounge chairs separately. This policy seems unfair and inconvenient. While the location is a strong selling point, improvements in cleanliness, maintenance, and policy enforcement are necessary for a more enjoyable experience.

The toilet in the room had lots of toilet paper, and the water overflowed in the bathroom when we checked in. Even the service team later fixed it when we asked, but it was a bad experience. All the employees are very kind and nice, but the facility is old and poorly maintained.

Needs improvements!

The room was dated and had old furniture. The paint was chipping and discolored. The room was neat, but don’t look clean. There were 2 roaches. The staff was friendly, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

We stayed a week at this property in January and it was so so. Not the worst but not the best. The beach and pool are very nice but there were not enough beach chairs so the other option was to pay $10 for each chair. The staff was nice but the service at the restaurants was really bad. They are definitely on Island time so expect to wait a long time for your meals.

We really enjoyed our stay here. This hotel has everything you need including laundry, a beach, and a hot tub. Took off a star only because the jacuzzi tub in the room was not working properly and we could have used another blanket in the room, but I'd still stay here again.
