My husband and I have wanted to stay here for years. We finally scheduled this for a back to school weekend trip. Check in was great and we were satisfied with the room. Loved the outdoor pool. We can’t believe that this is the only decent hotel in the area with an outdoor pool. That’s why we stayed here. What went sour for us was the experience we had when the power went out. I understand, it was out of their control. The receptionist in the evening of 8/12 and the morning of 8/13 had the “oh well it’s not our fault” attitude. No compensation except basically telling guests they’d refund the night if they left on Monday. That wasn’t an option for us. They could have even offered a credit to their restaurant and I would have been fine. It’s the fact that they couldn’t have cared less about the experience their paying guests had. They wrote my number down for a manager to call me, because they were too busy Tuesday to assist with any guests. Still haven’t heard anything and not really expecting to (5 days since we left). Honestly the way this situation was handled will be enough for us not to return unfortunately.

Stayed at this property one year ago and definitely noticed a big difference. Undergoing construction and we were given a room that lacked the furniture and amenities we paid for; we asked for a different room resulted in a two hour wait. No coffee makers in rooms guests were asked to go down to vine restaurant between hours of 6-930( very inconvenient). Housekeeping sub par we emptied our own garbage and got new glasses off cart after being gone all day with no service. Water taxi hours cut substantially and shuttle stopped running at 9 pm. Rooms very overpriced for amenities received.

Best customer service my only complaint is they wasn’t much furniture! I mean no dressers a safe on top of a frig that barely sat properly and almost smashed my foot. I understand that the floor was remodeled but honestly should have not rented rooms that are not finished.
