A bit disappointed
A weird thing but no screen doors on the Juliet balcony. I also found the layout of the resort a bit odd. Felt tight and confining accessing the pool while the office and social areas were across the street in a separate building. It's an old hotel dressed up with quirky but nice modern decor. Bed and pillows were comfortable and everything was kept very clean and tidy.

Fine but we expected more for the cost
We had a good stay. For the price, though, we expected it to be a bit higher end. The beach access, chairs, and umbrellas were a nice perk. The pool was good, but standard. The food at the beach bar wasn’t great or worth the prices. The coffee bar was only open until 1 pm, which was inconvenient (in-room print materials indicated the coffee bar was open until 5 pm). It was convenient to have a Publix and CVS across the street, but most good food options (with a few exceptions) were about an 11-minute walk away. If you want hotel beach access/beach amenities, this could be a good option. If you want a really nice/big pool and great food on site, this may not be what you’re looking for.

The only thing was that there was a big tree at our balcony so couldnt see the ocean very well. We paid for ocean view and was Partially obstructed. The pool and bar staff were wonderful as for the front desk . The octopus restaurant was very good as for the other coffee shop was good too. People been very nice.

Little rough but nice resort
The room we were in was very clean, the bed was rock hard and we woke up every day sore but with lots of stretching found relief. Remember when booking this is a pet friendly resort. Loved seeing all the dogs as I am a dog lover. The problem was the room next door had a dog that barked at night, most of the night and early morning. Addressed it after night 1 but nothing was done and when checking out was told I should of said something (which I did). Overall the resort is nice and quiet

Nice
Nice place, no complaints. It is a ‘hippy’ vibe and decor, Walking distance to main town square. Beach access is close. Pool is clean and heated-very nice. Beach and poolside service is attentive. Dissatisfied with extra parking fees added on top of room fees AND resort fees.

Money grab.
My room was lovely. The staff was incredibly nice and responsive. My complaint is that the place felt like an overly opportunistic money- grab. Some misleading costs, too. For example, I was under the impression that parking was free for one car but at check in I was told it was 25 bucks a night to park. The displayed cost said 20 bucks a night. There’s a 40 dollar a night ‘recreation, fee. When I asked about it being waved on my arrival cuz I didn’t get in til after 7PM and was leaving before 7AM I was told that it covered my leaving day use of facilities on my last day! Underutilized everything cuz of the high winds and drizzling rain the four days I was there. No free breakfast or even coffee ( in the. Room). I stayed at two other places while in Florida while visiting and much preferred the up-front, all- inclusive pricing I got at the other two places I stayed..
