It’s a nice place but the AC in my room was extremely loud, go to a resort to sleep with an airplane turbine doesn’t make sense. The location is great right in front to the beach, nice restaurants around you can go walking. There is a cool bar at the pool but it was closed!

Ocean was not visible from our room, but we were placed right by the pool which was still nice. Such a beautiful property! We were so impressed with each area we ventured to. Very delicious breakfast food for purchase, wonderful heated pool and plenty of outdoor seating poolside and just around the resort. We also really loved The Boardwalk being just across the parking lot! Lots of restaurants, shopping and a delicious spot for coffee located in the Oasis gift shop. We will definitely be back to stay again!

Pool is gorgeous and beach views are amazing! Most amenities like pool bar, food trucks, even the towel shack not open at all some days and closed before 4 on other days. Also very loud all night…cars, sirens, people in the parking lot screaming all night. And a constant smell of weed in areas.

Room okay, had stains on the sheets. Water pressure in shower wasn’t the best. Staff were decent and property was alright. Not a bad place to stay overall 3/5. They charge additional fees ($250) other than the $65 mentioned.

The room was outdated and could use some refreshing. The mattress was very firm and uncomfortable. The pillows weren’t much better. We didn’t have much interaction with the staff so I can’t really say they were good or bad. Housekeeping was good - we had fresh towels daily. The pool area was very crowded and only one pool was useable due to it being pretty cold (no fault to the hotel - weather was on the chilly side and its early march). Overall the hotel was okay, I just don’t think it was worth the amount we paid to stay there. The beach access was the best part of the stay but it’s not private and got fairly crowded during the peak of day.
