We had a wonderful room with a great ocean front view out a wall of windows. The room was large with two queen beds and a pull out queen sofa sleeper. The room had a large walk in closet! Three of us girls shared this room and each had a bed to ourselves and plenty of room in the closet for our things. I will stay again if I can get this same room. The staff was attentive and friendly. The building is old and could use some upgrades but the property is well kept and very convenient to restaurants and shops. It was rightly priced for the amenities.

If you're looking for casual, laid back old Florida and no high rises, this is the place to be. The beach, the waves and the people will make you book another reservation before you leave. It's our favorite place to be.

The beach was great. Grounds were dirty with people smoking cigarettes and pot on the walkways, steps, and outside our rooms. No decent foot wash for beach sand, so our room was a mess. Had to ask for room service & walk to get fresh towels from the front everyday.

The location of this property is great. It’s an easy walk to the beach and close to the restaurants. The hotel needs to be updated. It’s your classic 2.5-3 star hotel and could be really good if they would invest in updating rooms and bathrooms.

Will NOT stay again
I want to be nice because the girl at the front desk was so sweet but…this hotel was a bad stay for us. It is horribly outdated; the bed seemed new but the couch looks as if it’s been there since 1974, same with the chair. I didn’t even want to sit on either. Bathroom had holes in the wall that had been spackled over but not painted. Two different colors of tile in the bathroom, including one area where it looked like spackle had been smeared onto the tile. Sooo old and in a word: creepy. I hardly slept at all. We cut it short and checked out after the first night. Will definitely NOT stay there again. Very little to do on the island except for 1 or 2 restaurants and beautiful beaches. Next time we will get a house rental.

This is an older hotel with concrete block walks in every room. It was built to last and the rooms are very quiet because of it. The hotel has been updated with vinyl wood flooring which helps in cleanliness. The bed was comfortable but not luxurious. The bathroom was clean but the shower head leaked. The A/C struggled but kept the room temperature bearable on a very hot day. All in all they did good with what they had to work with. The price was reasonable and the beach access was great. The pool was clean and was the center point of the hotel with no rooms really having a beachfront view other than the end ones and they had no patios, just windows which were only good for a beach view if you were on the 2nd floor due to the proximity of the sand dunes. I would stay here again just for the price savings, but I would probably check into the condos surrounding the hotel area for pricing options first.

Great location, worth it!
Best location considering all the happenings on the island. We walked to everything! Not a bad room (logistically) on the property. Everything is close to the pool and more importantly the gulf. Room is dated but this is the criteria we use for a room. Safe, clean and convenient. It checked all boxes. All we need in a room is somewhere to hold our clothes while we are at the water. The ONLY downside is the beds were horrible.
