AAA Diamond Inspector Notes

Overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, this hotel features attractive rooms, and many have great views of the water. Each unit varies in size and some have a sofa sleeper, which is great for large families. The pool area also offers views of the Gulf, and a small beach area is a great spot to relax and catch some rays. Beach umbrellas may be rented. Smoke free premises. 91 units. 5 stories, interior/exterior corridors.

Comfortable room, hotel was right on the beach. Hotel staff was very pleasant and responsive. Lots of food and activities up and down the street near the hotel. Definitely would stay here again.

Nothing too fancy with the rooms and apparently the bathroom downstairs by the pool was gross (according to my friend that used it) but otherwise we all loved it! I would definitely go here again! You literally have everything you need here with shopping near by and you own beach area with a full bar and food and live music, plus another restaurant that we’d have breakfast at. It was all great and I really liked it there! Older place so the elevator is really small and there’s only one. Also, the car attendant people will yell at you and your uber driver if they drop you off at the door instead of in the garage lol so for warning, go to the garage for drop off😂

I loved the hotel and the beach and pool. Think that you have a lot of added expenses and could add all into the room fee. Towels were pretty worn out and did not think should have checked out towels. Would stay again. thanks to all the staff for making us welcome.
