Like the location, great access to other venues. Room was clean. Feel as though the lounge chairs and umbrellas should be part of the stay without cost.

Great hotel!
Great stay! The hotel was in a great location right on the beach and walking distance to so many things. Everyone was so nice and I was pleasantly surprised by the food and beverage prices. It was much more affordable than I thought it was going to be. All the food we had there was really good too.

Great Beach! All staff from front desk, housekeeping, bartenders were great and friendly. Quite a bit of the restaurants however were closed down due to the slow season is what we were told. The Sundeck restaurant had a waiter that brought me the wrong salad and completely forgot my drink. After that happened we just asked for boxes to take our food back to the room. The waiter was busy but didn't want to stick around for bad service.
This place has a great location and is in walking distance to some shopping and other restaurants.
We rented a car and went to Sanibel and Captiva Islands to check them out since they are close. Overall I'd recommend this place, mostly due to the location.

Bass drum by night. Trash truck by day
Well it was my mother, brother, sister in law and myself that stayed there. We were literally right above the bar that had a band every night until midnight. I have stayed here before and never had a problem. I was so disappointed. Not only were we kept up until midnight but at 6:30 in the morning we also had the privilege of having the trash truck come with their back up beeper going off like an alarm! When we checked out I mentioned to them of my displeasure with the stay and that it would have been nice to know when we checked in exactly where our room was and that it would be that noisy. I got a deer on the headlight look and that was it! This was a trip for my mom’s 80th birthday. How disappointing

Relaxing beach stay
We loved this hotel. Right on the beach with a relaxed vibe. Staff were amazing, friendly and always ready to help. Our room was spacious and clean with everything we needed. Parking was free for guests and on-site and secure. The beach is beautiful with soft white sand. The resort wasn’t busy and so it was very quiet in our room. Great bars onsite and some lovely restaurants just up the road. We will definitely stay here again!

Bad anniversary trip
We didn't sleep the 3 days we were there...horribly loud music every night. One elevator wasn't working; one restaurant was closed; the "fine dining" restaurant we visited for our anniversary dinner was so loud, we couldn't talk to one another; phone didn't work in the room..I was told maintenance would check it but never saw anyone. I had to sign an agreement to close our curtains after 9pm, not to disturb the turtles, otherwise pay a $250 fine; we had to park across the street; for the resort fee I paid per night, we were given 2 bottles of water every day! Really? Will never stay there again. Oh, and I did see a cockroach
