Overall, we enjoyed our stay. We found the staff very friendly and helpful; they responded quickly to requests. Room was clean but in need of upgrades, especially the bathroom which was small for 2 people and the air conditioner unit which was very loud. Pool area was large and well maintained. While a nice property, it did not meet the standards of a Hilton.

Stayed here with my sis and handful of kids ages 10 to 19. Stayed in the big room with many beds, had a blast. We stayed here last year when it was being renovated and I was really looking forward to coming back to see the finished product. I love the 50s feel of the place with all of the turquoise and coral. The beds and room were clean and comfortable with the fantastic view. You absolutely cannot beat this location with the pool and the tiki bar and the restaurant able to walk right down onto the sand from your room. We will definitely be back and looking forward to it. Parking is plentiful and super easy., and the staff was accommodating and friendly and fantastic

The staff were awesome and very helpful. The beach view was spectacular, great parking. The room was clean but the floor in the bathroom needs to be replaced. The tile was not adhered and was soft when stepped on. The grout was broken and not sure what might be growing in there.
