My family enjoyed the slides and pool area. The rest of hotel amenities was old, outdated and neglected. Im sorry to leave negative comments since the staff was great. Wake up call to owners/upper management to re-invest in the the property. Bathroom was clogged and tiles missing, cracks everywhere

Overall the hotel was a good experience, but bathtub was not in good conditions, and the hotel in general looks like it needs maintenance. The restaurant inside was a lifesaver because the hotels room service is very limited.

Dated hotel that needs more work to be enjoyable.

We stayed for 3 nights and hoped to extend our stay as the beach and views were beautiful. But the cold hot tub, cold rooms, poor wifi, and hot water that took 10 minutes to warm up made the stay less enjoyable. The staff were always friendly, but unable to help with the many deficiencies. We did have one very good meal at beachside restaurant. We enjoyed walks on the beach, but would only return if the hotel addresses the many areas which need repair.
