We stayed at this two bdrm beach front apt for spring break. It was a beautiful apt. It felt like home but with the beach all around you. From the main bedroom balcony to the living room balcony you were surrounded by the beautiful beach. We saw dolphins from our balcony is the mornings. The home was very clean. The ability to wash our clothes in the full size machines made it so easy. The owners were very responsive and checked on us throughout our stay. We most certainly would stay in 2001 again and highly recommence any one else to do the same. The property itself was amazing all you could expect from a resort. Several pools, clean beach and extremely family friendly. The location is prime as it is conveniently located near stores, restaurants and any other activities in the area.

For the most part we enjoyed our stay here. However, there are things we wish were better. It was cold during the majority of our stay, so the hot tub was used a lot. They need more hot tubs or bigger hot tubs. The bigger one was not warm and was down for all of our stay. The other hot tub is super small and was always packed! The gym was so small and in the photos it looks a lot bigger. If there was more than 3 people it was hard to workout. Parking was awesome. Being on the 1st floor the trash shoots were super loud, so be prepared for that in the mornings. Yes there’s a private beach, but you have to rent the chairs for a hefty price!! FYI you do not get fresh towels, so be aware of that. We stayed for 5 days, so that was a little annoying. There was not a single sharp knife in the kitchen…good thing my husband had a pocket knife. It would have been nice to have a vacuum cleaner to help with all the sand. We used the broom and did the best we could, but it was so hard to get all the sand off the floors. The hideaway bed was terrible! The mattress was so thin you could feel every bar. My son ended up sleeping on the couch, but those cushions needed to be replaced as well. Hopefully this helps with your stay.

Awesome

This hotel was really cool. Nice big room with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, a balcony, full kitchen. I really like how there’s 3 pools, with one of them being half indoor half outdoor + a huge hot tub, outside bar (only downside is they close before 7), plus direct beach access. I’d definitely stay here for a trip again

I really didn't like being told that we had to wear a wrist band for our entire vacation, like we're teenagers at a club. The staff seemed really unhappy with life in general. The room smelled moldy when we arrived but wasn't too bad once we opened the balcony doors. There was a surprising amount of cookware which was nice. The tiki bar was good but I never found the cafe.
