Outdated for me. Great facility on the water however. Food is as questionable.
This is a beautiful property with very nice amenities. Plus, the location is prime and close to restaurants and shops.
The reason for a missing star was due to two things: 1) the air conditioning unit in our room was like an airplane starting up. It was extremely loud every time it kicked on. 2) it would have been ideal if we were warned about the elevator needing a part. Our room was on the third floor and when we took the elevator, we reached the third floor and it bounced and make a horrifying sound that gave us a heart attack! It was absolutely terrifying every time!
But we will return again because despite the above reasons, this really is a great place!
The view was beautiful from our patio. The swimming pool was large and architecturally well designed. The view from the dining area was also spectacular, and the supper was first class. Free breakfast was very nice, as well.
The staff were very hospitable. The view was awesome and the property was unique. I really enjoyed my stay and hope to go back there again.
My only small concerns were the mattress was a little soft for me. There was some rust on some of the lamps inside the room and on some areas outside around the property. However, that isn’t a big surprise since the hotel is right on the water.
The view is wonderful. Thats where my enthusiasm starts and stops.The rooms are over due for shower udates/maintenance, including toilets . Beds are old. A lot of furniture placed in a small space.. I respect the history of this place but its apparent the ownership has their head in the sand. Multi million dollar property with mold, old mattresses, awful choices of furniture in rooms.. Do better or find a new hobby becaaue the hospitality business isn't for you!
The hotel was just gorgeous! We had a room on the second floor and it was on the bay! Absolutely stunning view of the Sunrise and dolphins swimming. We had wonderful happy hour food and the breakfast in the morning was a so yummy! I would definitely recommend this place to everyone! The staff was super welcoming and the room was super nice.
Everything was great with our stay until the first night! Music from the local bar played until 2am! Thank goodness the hotel gave us a fan to drown out the music! Great stay after that! It’s a beautiful property right in the water!

The beds were awful. The Air conditioner was so loud and rattled we almost went home. The front desk was reluctant to help us and switch our room. After a small confrontation we got another room with a slightly more quiet AC. We got very little sleep.
The restaurant staff was very friendly and helpful. So was the evening front desk person, but not the maid who had to clean our room when we switched, or the daytime front desk person. I had to be firm and persistent with before front desk helped us. She showed no concern for the comfort of the guests.
We really enjoyed our stay. The people were fantastic. The included breakfast was quite good every morning. The walls are a bit thin so you'll hear those kids next door. We were able to sit out on the dock and watch the dolphins.
Overall it was a very relaxing stay.
