We stayed there in 6-03. The hotel itself is very nice with a great location to the beach. A 4-5 min walk down a path, basically it is ocean front if you ask me without the price.
The service was not good, very unorganized. Be careful of the info you recieve from them.
When I made my ressie I was promised:
-$99 rate which included the shuttle
-The shuttle would pick us up at 10:30am.
Because I always have many questions, I probably called 3-4 times over a few months time. Everytime I called, I would double check this info. Everytime, they told me that the shuttle was not included and that the shuttle would not pick up that early. Each time, I would ask for the manager and they would run around asking until they finally agreed that I was correct.
As many times as I called (one time was a day or 2 before we stayed there), I still had to fight with them over the shuttle issue when I arrived!!! When I got there, they said no, the shuttle never picks up until 12 (which is true by the way). When I told them about my calls and that the shuttle issues were one of the reasons I chose to stay there, they checked to see if they could arrange it, which they did.
Everything worked out the way it was suppose to, but boy was it a hassle. No one knew what the other was doing.
The food/drinks were horrible. Unfortunately, they really were not set up to serve in a restaurant even though they had one. The bar waitress was the only server (and this was June). There was a very limited menu and she somehow managed to mess up a pina colada. We had not intended on eating there, but because of a huge storm and no car we couldn't get out of the hotel..
It is in with walking distance to Ron Jon's, an IHOP (good!), Burger King, Dairy Queen and shopping (both souveniors and grocery). The souvenior shop across the street is probably the best, way cheaper than Ron Jon's!!!!!!!
Don't be discouraged, the hotel was fine. If the promise anything, get it in writing.
