I loved the balcony. I paid for a discount room so I got one that looked out over the bar and the pool. Not best for quiet stay but other than that all was great.

The location of the resort is spectacular. Being on the end of the island like that and right between two water views is just so stunning. I was sad to the see that that building and amenities are showing their age a little. The beds were comfortable though, and I had a great vacation.

Overall, we had a great experience at the Shell Island resort. The staff was really friendly and accommodating. They even helped by providing a guest parking pass for us when we had friends visiting. The space is smaller than some resorts, but we made it work.
