Great beds and sheets were soft and luxurious. Storage for luggage was available upon arrival (if too early for check in), and check out (if you want to stay a little longer before leaving). Staff were courteous and helpful. It was our first time staying- but there were extra charges we weren't aware of- like renting a beach chair ($10/day) and a $10/day charge to support the aquarium.

Love how the beautiful beach and Gulf inlet were right out back of the resort. The staff serving food and drinks ran around making sure all customers were taken of and did an awesome job! I really enjoyed the stay.

We would stay again.

Polite and friendly staff. Room was as decribed. Only thing worth noting is the "partial ocean view" room was facing a multi story car park which was noisy at times but nothing we didn't cope with. We could see the ocean and did see dolphins from it! Attached restaurant was fabulous, ate there multiple times.

The hotel was very clean and everyone was very friendly. The only problem we had was we didn't know we need to keep a room key when checking out to get out of the garage, something the front desk should tell you when checking out. Would stay again, perfect location
