This is the best pet friendly hotel I have ever stayed in. From the cover to throw over the bed to the ten foot high shower head, this has the amenities for a luxury hotel that allows your pets to stay with you. We did a hurricane evacuation here and were never so happy to spend a night away from home! I can not say enough about the beautiful, quality details in the hardware, huge silent SOLID doors, beautiful windows- this place is pure quality!

This was a last minute trip. It was a great location and easy to book. I loved the grounds. So much to do and having the opportunity to rent golf carts to explore made it so easy and fun.

I liked that it was clean and all staff that we encountered were very courteous. I didn’t like the fact that I booked 2 different identical rooms for the same stay but booked them on different days. The room I booked earlier was $ 50.00 per night more expensive than the one I booked later. I also didn’t like that I requested the rooms be adjoining or at least close to each other but 1 was on 1 side of the hotel on the 2nd floor and the other room was on the 3rd floor on the opposite side of the hotel
