Ocean view with no Ocean in sight
I booked an ocean view 2 bedroom villa and when i checked in i was facing a parking lot. When I contacted the front desk I was dismissed and advised that my room considered ocean view. There was no view of the water. I specifically chose to stay at this hotel for the view. Needless to say I won’t return.

Rodent in our villa terrible guest relations
The level of service here was the absolute worst I have ever seen. I am in the travel business and have definitely seen a wide array of client service and by far this was the terrible. Let’s begin with the fact there was a rat/mouse in my children’s room. My daughter was traumatized seeing it scurry around and came screaming down the hallway. We called the pine villa manager on duty that night and he indeed caught the rodent with my 3 children screaming in the room. They moved our room but we had wet laundry and dishes for my kids sports tournament running so we didn’t actually settle into the new room until after midnight. This all of course comes after we got our room keys later than the promised 4pm check in time as well. Additionally when I was waiting for the call for our room to be ready the front desk charged my credit card 2 times. When I called and asked why they processed a charged over $10K they just brushed it off and said oops that was an accident and confirmed they did so with their accounting contact. We waited and waited for the general manager to contact us all morning and even with me messaging them they called to acknowledge the rodent at 12pm the next day! They said they could only give us bonvoy points which translated in dollar amount of $166 which is a joke. The right thing would be to take off the first night from our folio!!! We would have been fine paying for the other 4 nights but that 1st clearly should have been on Marriott NOT us! Not ok!!!!

I truly enjoyed my stay. Every member of the staff was pleasant and professional beginning prior to our arrival and lasting throughout our stay. Check-in and check-out was quick and easy, the hotel’s location is perfect in proximity to the airport and local attractions. Our suite was immaculate with a great view and there were plenty of chairs at the spacious pool. Drinks at the pool bar are amazing!

Great for families
We enjoyed our stay at Ocean Watch. The rooms are extremely clean and fully equipped with everything you need. Love that they had a washer/dryer with laundry detergent. It’s really hard to book since this is a time share location. My only suggestion would be to block off more rooms per month for non members that do not wish to purchase a time share.

Beautiful place
We stayed at a 2-bedroom villa with an ocean view. The villa is beautiful. The rooms are clean and nicely furnished. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, utensils - basically, everything you may need. There is even a washer and dryer! Great location too, close to plenty of restaurants and attractions.
