The only thing I would say is that they need to screw the box spring to the floor and get new mattresses. Also the tiki bar needs more consistent hours and later hours.

This was our second year staying here. We love it! It’s very family oriented and kid friendly (movie night, kids games where they can win ribbons, sand castle competitions, watermelon time etc). Within walking distance to Pier Park (shopping/dining). We will definitely go back.

Great place to stay, the staff is amazing! It’s not a luxury hotel, but it’s a great place with a great vibe and great location and view. The tiki bar down by the beach access is a huge plus. Be sure and say hi to Lisa at the tiki bar, she’s awesome!!!

The location of this property is excellent, right next to the Hyatt and near Hwy 79. This property is right on the beach in an area that was not very crowded. The property had been updated, with new kitchenettes. The beds were comfortable and the property had a pool, bar and hot tub. It is convenient to many dining options.
