Stayed four nights and thoroughly enjoyed everything about this beautiful, quiet, relaxing and luxurious property. The room and bathroom we stayed in appeared to be newly renovated. The room was very spacious and clean; bed and pillows extraordinarily comfortable; bathroom shower appeared new with excellent water pressure. Loved everything about the sleeping accommodations, the Tiki Bar- Breezers, and onsite restaurants were excellent!!! Best of all, the property is directly on its own private beach and provides beach chairs for its patrons. The pool is very clean and the Tiki bar food and drinks were excellent. Highly recommend and we will certainly be coming back to enjoy a quiet, relaxing, dream vacation!

I like that it's very close to the beach. the cleaning staff is very friendly and the lady in restaurante bar too. I wish the microwave had a cabinet instead of on top of the refrigerator, because it moves a lot when it's turned on. I also wish they'd put down a mat to get to the beach.

We just had a 1 night 2 day stay, and it was so convenient that we didn't have to leave if we didn't want. The restaurant was wonderful, the beach was perfect, and the pool bar was fun. And the room was beautiful and clean, everything that we needed.

Wonderful beachfront property with lovely pool and convenient pool bar and restaurant. Also appreciated the on site mini market and restaurant. Renovations are tastefully done post storms. Unavoidable in Florida but some dampness in rooms and the little no-seeum bugs outside were terrible in the evenings but the hotel had bug spray for sale and forewarned guests about that which was helpful! Really enjoyed our stay and would come back.

Had same house keeper the entire time. Not only did she do an amazing job cleaning up after we had been at the beach with all the sand mess and eating in the room. But she was very nice getting us other things we needed, like extra coffee pods, cups, towels, or anything else. Super friendly and helpful.

Great resort. Clean rooms, easy access to the beach, and very good food by the pool. For the dollars, worth it. Night time desk staff excellent (we arrived at 2AM), house cleaning staff excellent (daily room service was nice). Judeen at the poolside cafe was super nice, the food excellent and a great deal for the island. Daytime desk staff was the only negative. Lots of attitude without the gratitude.
