There is no staff on site. Every thing is done by phone. More like a airbud house. If you need a towel or more TP you call and number. God knows how you will get it. Pool was clean but needs repair. We stayed there 4 year ago was great staff great too. Now no staff and place has gone down hill. Will not be going back.

Booked at Club bamboo south #118 Friday -Monday. I lived in the area previously. The refrigerator was warm, my husband being a diabetic & needing to refrigerate insulin. Our food was spoiled overnight. My husband vomited all day Saturday due to spoiled food. So a whole day lost having to move to #118. I requested a late check out since we lost the day due to a BROKEN REFRIGERATOR, I was offered to check out at 11am for $50 charge. We left today Monday at 8:00am, we took out our own trash & placed used towels in tub. The parking lot is full of trash debris & cigarette butts, BROKEN curbs.

What i liked the most about this hotel, is that is right in front of the beach. No walking, or crossing streets to go to the beach, just go down the stairs and you are there.

Location. Location. Location.
Absolutely loved the place. Intimate, so close to the beach, which is what I love. The rooms were nice, air conditioners worked great. Only complaint, no broom for tile floors at the beach. A lot of sand was tracked in due to beach gear being brought in. Everyone one there was so nice. Just don't expect 4 star hotel amenities. It is an old Florida hotel, no ice machine, no food. But the location is amazing. We loved it.

Loved location, parking, closeness to the beach, breeze way, and elevator. Rooms are adequate but need updating; no instructions on cable, facility rules, or garbage. No staff on site to ask questions. Had no cable and AC never really cooled down the room.

The Dream Island Inn - Not Exactly a Dream
The person at the front desk was friendly but they are not staffed full time. I was under the impression that we were staying at the Anna Maria Dream Island Inn, but they had us stay at Club Bamboo which was also part of the property. Overall, the size of the room was fine. The room had a Mr. Coffee pot style coffee maker but no coffee to make it with. The box spring cover looked like it had mildew on it and one of our pillowcases had a blood stain on it (see pictures below). On the website, it mentioned there were umbrellas and chairs available for the beach but all the umbrellas were broken we were told. If staying here, you will want to bring your own beach towels since the ones they provided were almost unusable for the beach. The pool area appeared to be clean, but there is no bathroom unless you go up to your room. It was not terribly bad, but I will not be staying here again.

Disappointed at this price
We are disappointed in this property given the price that we paid. It appears to be a 1950s property that has not been upgraded. The front staff was very helpful, but there was really limited service and we had to go to get our own towels, and the room was never cleaned by the maids. Beach access was easy and they did provide chairs. $400 was overpriced, I would expect $150-175 for this property. Hotels.com reservation service was smooth.

It was a beautiful view, clean room, No frills. Property does need some up keep, pool did not look clean at all. Beach chair area not kept up, sandburs everywhere where people walk through to beach. Our drains did not work well in toilet or bathroom sink. Otherwise Great location, convenient. We were put in Club Bamboo, sister property a few doors down which did work well for us. I thought is was a nicer property. I would stay again.

Terrible place to stay and terrible employees. They charged us 800 extra for having the kids (total of 4 ) for a king bed with couch, saying that was a 2 person room. Amenities are terrible, pool is dirty. The receptionist tricked us into paying almost double the amount we paid to expedia. Do not book this place!
