The location was great and the shuttle to the beach was convenient. We also appreciated being able to check in early and having access to free beach equipment. Unfortunately, the rest of the stay was pretty disappointing. The breakfast buffet was not good at all. The food selection was limited and the bacon was so bad I could barely eat it. The room also wasn't as clean as I expected. There was hair on the floor when we arrived, and housekeeping never cleaned the bathroom sink area even after I cleared everything off of it to make it easier for them. The fees were another issue. The daily incidental hold was much higher than I have experienced at other hotels, and being charged a resort fee every day instead of one fee for the stay felt excessive. I was also given conflicting information by the front desk. One employee told me a complimentary teepee setup could be arranged, but when I called back the next day I was told they didn't have any and was repeatedly told I didn't have the correct package. For the amount of money we spent, I expected a much better experience. The location was the best part of the stay, but the food, cleanliness, fees, and inconsistent customer service made this a disappointing visit overall. Read less

I stayed in a marina view suite with two small children. The suite was extremely disappointing — there was a distinct moldy/damp smell in the room. Every time we entered the room my three year old complained about it. The curtains were dirty and overall the room felt worn and tired.

I stayed in a marina view suite with two small children. The suite was extremely disappointing — there was a distinct moldy/damp smell in the room. Every time we entered the room my three year old complained about it. The curtains were dirty and overall the room felt worn and tired. I was also given wrong information twice when I asked questions at the front desk. But the service was friendly even if unhelpful in this respect. My three year old loved the heated pool and waterslide. It was very crowded in June so I can only imagine what it’s like in peak summer, but all the kids were having a great time. The service in the Red Marlin restaurant was really friendly. I also appreciated that the hotel gave us chairs and sand toys for the beach. Overall it would have been a good stay if the room had not been so disappointing and if we’d received better service. Read less

The rooms were spacious and clean. The pools were great for families and kids. I would have liked to have had more food and beverage choices on the property. The parking and resort fees were high and added an unexpected cost to the stay. We upgraded our room and had an amazing balcony view.

Great location and the room was nice however there was a ton of black mold in the bathroom on the wall and ceiling opposite the bathroom (Room 1101). We have 2 young kids so mold exposure is not ideal however other than that it was a nice stay. We loved seeing the Sea World drone show from the balcony.

Perfect location, great atmosphere, the rooms were comfortable but could be cleaned better. Really pricey for lack of activities like breakfast, room service, ect. All night you can hear airplanes taking off and landing. The staff was nice in the front desk area but the staff surrounding the food and bar could use some customer service training.
