First time at EDSS. We did enjoy the large rooms and liked the idea of the swim out suites. In reality, the swim outs that are elevated are cold and unused. The pools are not heated, not just the swim outs but the main pool. The pools are also heavily shaded which might be lovely in warm months but the I couldn’t even bring myself to do more than dip a toe in December. Each morning we made our way to the Palms side of Seaside Suites and preferred the ocean temperatures for swimming and relaxing. This whole side of the resort has a more friendly vibe and if we ever come back we are definitely Seaside Palms people. Best bar service from Maria!!! She was a star and I hated to see those around me not tipping her. The food on this resort is top notch, not standard bland buffets. We were a little sad that seaside suites only had one restaurant so it felt like we were leaving our hotel to do everything. We didn’t mind the short walks and usually had good luck catching a golf cart ride. The protected beach on Palms side had many varieties of fish eager to eat right from your hands. We did the free catamaran but probably wasn’t worth the long drive and being stuck at the beach club. We left our resort 7:30am and the bus didn’t bring us back until 6:00pm and we almost missed our dinner reservation. We didn’t anticipate it taking so long and that wasn’t explained. Fortunately Javier our Catamarán host was excellent and made it enjoyable even though it was too windy to snorkel.

I recently stayed at this resort and was thoroughly disappointed by the overall experience. While the location had potential, the service and amenities fell far short of expectations. Service and Staff: The service was inconsistent. While the bellboys were great and consistently helpful, many of the women staff responded with passive-aggressive tones, making interactions uncomfortable. The concierge was unhelpful when issues arose, only addressing concerns after escalating frustrations. At GP restaurant, the hostess lied about the wait time, seating a party of 10 ahead of us despite our 40-minute wait. The front desk staff was hit-or-miss—while one gentleman was helpful, a younger woman mishandled our checkout and then gaslit me, claiming she had provided a ticket that she never gave. Dining Experience: The food was underwhelming, lacking flavor and arriving cold when ordered through room service. The delays in service only added to the dissatisfaction. Amenities and Atmosphere: The resort’s amenities were not as advertised. The beach beds had torn towels, and the overall availability of amenities was disappointing. To make matters worse, the music played throughout the resort seemed catered exclusively to older guests, disregarding the preferences of a younger demographic. While there were a few bright spots—these were overshadowed by the unprofessionalism and poor service throughout the resort. Hopefully management intervenes to improve future guest experiences.

We were celebrating our anniversary and the room and property was very nice. We stayed 9 days and everyone was very attentive and helpful. I would definitely come back. The outside of the balcony's need a little attention, but you really didn't notice it. We had a wonderful and relaxing time. I can't say enough about the resort.
