I loved it, and more that it has everything there in the same place, pool, restaurant, bar; the food is delicious; a place to return; for the price I imagined it cleaner, but I still liked that everything was there without having to go out

Our first time at the Crystal Coast and this hotel. We would definitely stay again. Staff very friendly and extremely helpful and understanding with our travel plans. Facility well kept by the maintenance staff. Hotel design allows every room to have a great view of the ocean. Plenty of convenient, on-site parking.

We had a great time! The staff was amazing!!! The room was comfortable enough. The A/C was a struggle and the shower curtain was set too far into the shower space. But minor issues. The restaurant food was very good and the staff was super.

The hotel and restaurant were both in great shape,clean and up to date. This is our 4th or 5th time staying here and the only thing that has went down hill is the amount of beach chairs available and there condition. Would love to see a little more ramp or sand ramp for the handicapped guest as the soft sand below the steps is an issue for my wife.

Ice machines were non functioning on a couple of floors and needed repair or replacement. Had to pay for parking but overall still cheaper than most and these small issues were not deal breakers. The views from room were amazing and beach was foot steps away. Highly recommend.

Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Hotel was clean and rates were very reasonable, especially for a hotel on the beach with ocean views and direct access. They provided chairs and umbrellas for the beach as well as towels for the pool/ hot tub.

We just had the most amazing weekend. The reason why I rated the cleanliness a 4 is just because the property is older. The customer service is 100%. We watched the staff serve the guests for the over 12 hours and they were so kind the entire time. Food is amazing, the drinks were amazing. I

Well, The playground was very nice for kids, but the pool was not heated, the room door was stuck so you had to kick it to open, the pass key card failed 4 times in two days, hot tub was nice, rooms are kinda small, had to go to front desk to get towels every day, and my biggest problem was that there was no washer and dryer to use on site so you had to go into town and find a laundromat. Overall if you are going for a couple of days it a nice place, but if looking for a place for a week or two, not so much......

A great place to stay when visiting the Crystal Coast. Nearby restaurants and shops. Super comfy and quiet. The rooms are pretty updated, minor things need to be done but not really an issue. The beach access, outdoor area is phenomenal. Pools / hot tub well maintained. We enjoyed our stay here very much and would definitely come back.

The bed was extra firm and was somewhat hard to sleep on. There's a daily parking fee of about $20 which I think they advertise when you book the room. Housekeeping has to be specially requested which is nice to not have to worry about that interuption sitting the stay. Hotel like great and is right next to the beach. Enjoyed my stay

Only stayed one night and it was too windy to enjoy being outside. Overall good, clean space, the restaurants food was good. They have a park area for kids which was nice. Maybe I haven’t stayed on a beach enough but the floor and even the sheets felt like they had sand/salt on them which I wasn’t expecting. I also paid $21 for parking there I didn’t know about prior either. I would stay again to enjoy the beach and hot tub more.
