We loved our stay! We are walking wanderers so this spot was very centralized and easy walk in either direction to any bar or restaurant, or just a short drive to anything 2 miles north or south. It was great to have access to the bigger pool at the plaza and beach access with our wristbands. It was a great room and perfect for us and we would definitely stay here again!

Clean and spacious rooms. A selection of pools. Free Happy Hour. Right off the beach. The kids loves the outdoor games. One thing that isn’t clear is the pet fee which is $45 per night per dog. We only stayed one night and loved the place so it was worth it but I could see how this could add up. Other than that we loved this place!

I did not realize that I was not on the beach side but down the block and across the street. The room lacked many amenities like two end tables for the bed. I had to put my things (glasses, water bottle, etc) on the floor. The sofa in the first room was too uncomfortable to sit on. The second room had no sofa at all.

Good location but not a great stay.

I think this could be a decent place to stay for a family that just wants to be close to the beach and is willing to make concessions. My one-bedroom suite was clean and had newer furniture and amenities. Tiny kitchenette was decently appointed. However, being on the first floor, there were only two windows that really couldn’t be opened for safety reasons. One faced busy Gulf Boulevard and the other, the very narrow hallway. Plus, they are covered in a vinyl film for privacy, so the room was extremely dark. Queen mattress too soft and squeaky. Parking is on a single narrow strip in front of the building and 3 feet away from Gulf Boulevard. Extremely dangerous backing out and pulling in isn’t much better. Pets are allowed, but very limited green space. Tiny pool closes at sunset. Dock seating area is nice. Check in for this unit was across the street and three buildings down. It was arduous as I had added an extra day and everything had to be duplicated with the first reservation and second. Extra charges for resort fee and pets. Not an inexpensive stay, but again you’re paying for the location. Be vigilant about room choice.
