Bilmar Beach Resort - Resorts Near Me - Treasure Island, Florida

Recently stayed there four nights and had a wonderful time at both the swimming pools, as well as enjoying the big white sandy beaches and the warm gulf waters. The resort was friendly, the food was great and there were so many fun things to do in the area. Special shout out to Heather at the Front Desk for being so gracious and kind during our stay. Every time she spotted me she would say, "here comes trouble!" Can't wait to come back for another stay! read more

We stayed at the Bilmar to attend a friends wedding onsite. It's a tough review as the area is still recovering from the hurricane last year. The Bilmar sign is iconic and looks great at night. It's right on the beach and the walking path is super convenient. Bonus points for Publix being so close and Sloppy Joes as the hotel restaurant. It's also walking to other bars and restaurants. Our stay was spendy for Florida but as there are several hotels and resorts that did not reopen after the hurricane, demand is higher than supply. Bilmar was under continued construction and I have to say they did a great job with safety, signage and barricades. Noise was also minimal during the day. The ac was crazy loud and backed up by an in room unit with a hose to outside via the window. Not ideal. Beds were supposed to be new but if they were the mattress quality was marginal. Check in was in the make shift lobby in Sloppy Joes as the main lobby was being redone. Small and not convenient but temporary. Pools were nice. Clean. read more

Upon checking arrival, my husband and I opened the door to a couple laying on the bed about to have possibly a human interaction. We went to the front desk and was not able to speak to a manager until the next morning we were told she was going to contact us, which never happened. My husband had to go downstairs to contact her about that horrific incident the next morning. Mind you I have kids. My husband went downstairs after not being contacted to speak with the manager, and she comped us the penthouse suite. At this time it was 8 PM and we didn't even wanna mess with that but she insisted. Which, upon we had been interrupted because after using the amenities that we were comped, the Jacuzzi tub was said to be flooding to the two rooms below us. Security knocked on our door around 11 PM. Asking me if I flooded the Jacuzzi. Mind you this is 11 PM and I was just getting out of the Jacuzzi tub. I was enjoying with my son to answer the banging on my door. I was furious. My husband had spoke to Heather and she told us she was going to compass a free room the next day and that we would be contacted by their staff and didn't have to do anything else. But what do you know of the next day came and we had not gotten any contact from their management. So once again, my husband had to go downstairs where the general manager Clyde, had told my husband he believed that we were comped enough, and there was nothing more he could do. When I went on Booking.com, there were rooms available that he could've comped us. I don't know what world that this is an OK situation or experience for a family to have. No way is this acceptable it's beyond inappropriate and such a horrific experience plus the rooms are so outdated. I even saw a cockroach.. I just spoke with him too and he was beyond rude. Cut me off and didn't even let me finish speaking and basically called me a liar about the situation about the couple on the bed crazy. And insisted that he knew they were not naked. So they must have cameras in the room. Clyde is beyond unprofessional. He is about as old as the rooms that you'd be staying at if you book this place. I feel as though my husband and I were discriminated against because we were also disabled veterans. So if you have a family with disabled veterans, don't stay here because they'll discriminate and give you the worst experience possible. and all I wanted was to have an enjoyable getaway because I had recently had a newborn two months ago and I'm going through postpartum depression and they just made it worse. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! read more

Very nice, clean and staff is amazing!!Daughter was married there on the beach and they made sure everything was perfect! Rooms are older but very comfortable and decorated very cute! Close to anything you might need!! Highly recommend read more

Went for a weekend in March. The hotel, still under remodeling after the hurricane, had us check in at the on site restaurant. Our room was spacious. We faced the ocean and enjoyed sunsets on the balcony. We didn't try any other pools, but the locale right on the beach is great. Everyone was friendly. Would go back. read more

Attending a wedding at this Hotel and it blew us away with how awesome everything was! From the moment we checked in to the moment we checked out it was a very memorable weekend. The staff was 5 stars and so nice. They all seemed to be happy to help, answer questions or just BS some. Special shout out and a cheers to, Luis, Nick, Avi, Denise, Harry, Renee and Tori! They worked the wedding event and/or provided services that were memorable throughout our stay and they all should get an extra bonus in their next checks! The room was great, clean, and picturesque. I made sure that houskeeping knew we appreciated her hard work as well. Thank you Bilmar, I'll see you again soon and even though I am a local resident, I'll make this my go to place anytime I need to stay in Treasure Island or have anyone ask me the best place to be at. read more

My stay here was extremely disappointing and inappropriate for a family environment. When we first checked into our room, we opened the door to find another couple already in the bed in what appeared to be an intimate situation. I immediately went to the front desk but was told a manager would not be available until the next morning. I was also told someone would contact me, which never happened. I had to go downstairs the next day myself to speak with management. Later we were moved to a penthouse suite, but that situation also turned stressful when security came banging on our door around 11 PM accusing us of flooding the Jacuzzi tub into the rooms below. It was embarrassing and completely unnecessary. Management then promised to comp us another night, but again no one contacted me. When I followed up, the general manager told me we had already been "comped enough" and refused to help further. They also insisted they "knew for a fact" the couple in the room wasn't being intimate, which honestly makes me wonder how they would know that unless there were cameras in the room. That comment alone was very concerning. On top of everything, the rooms are very outdated and I even saw a cockroach. The general manager was extremely rude and dismissive when I tried to explain what happened. As a family that includes disabled veterans, we felt completely disrespected and poorly treated. Overall, this was a very upsetting experience and not somewhere I would recommend staying. We ended up going to another hotel and actually enjoyed a relaxing experience where the rooms weren't stuck in the 80's. read more

Friendly staff, newly remodeled after hurricane damage, and decent prices even though they're sneaking in an additional $35 upcharge that's mandatory which disguises the price you pay. I know this is not an uncommon practice in tourist areas but it's dishonest and somewhat predatory to advertise a price then require additional payment that's not a government tax or fee (which hotels also are usually subject to). We had numerous problems with our visit that we were uninformed about until we arrived even though we spoke to the front desk a week before our visit and again the day of our arrival. This again felt a bit underhanded in order to not lose customers and lure them in: the parking lots were on demolished condition in preparation for paving the following week which meant parking off-site. Worse, we could not cart our own luggage due to the conditions, and our initial room which was especially chosen for location within the grounds would require us to use the stairs because of a broken elevator. A building that has only one elevator? Very difficult to believe in our times. We instead had to relocate to a secondary building. Our bellhops were very friendly but also very inexperienced, having difficulty using and navigating the luggage carts let alone negotiating them at the room, the elevator and the chewed up parking lot. Bad timing on our part. Hey, at least no one working here was grousing. That helped. I still have generous tips as they were enthusiastic if somehow lacking in their job. Our in-room telephone didn't work. So calling a bellhop for our departure meant asking a nearby housekeeper to radio the request... which resulted in us waiting 30 minutes before deciding I should just use my cell phone to call the front desk, and then within minutes she arrived with her cart. The pool is nice and furnishings at the pool are in great condition. Amenities there include a towel service that's staffed. Very nice older gentleman John was wonderful. Our bathroom door did not close all the way which was very annoying and somewhat awkward for a shared room. Also the hair dryer wall unit was not anchored so it literally came off the wall when attempting to use the equipment. Another surprise. All in all, we still enjoyed our stay. I think with a few months to get their kinks worked out and train their staff for tourist season, this may be a good choice although there seem to be many other similar places around that area. read more

Starting with the positive...the beach was beautiful and very close. The room was clean to a point... Now the bad... the elevators need to be wiped down. There Steel or chrome entry was nasty. Handprints, smudges, smears over every inch. The toilet and sink in our room would make gurgling sounds every night, and cause this funky crap smell to overtake the room. They have a sign that says rooms will not be cleaned after 3. The first day we left our room right before 11 am. No maid service. The next day we left at 9 am, again no service. My husband went back to the room at 1 pm, to grab sunblock a d the maid saw him and came in to make the beds. Didn't do anything else. The funny part is, management leaves an envelope for you to leave the maid a tip... her loss, as we put it in the envelope for her. Last day I took it out. If ya don't clean it while I'm there, I ain't tipping you to clean it for someone else. They did offer to take off two days of amenity fees... wowza. Amenities? There were Amenities? Half the place was closed due to the hurricanes, which by the way, would have been nice to know prior to booking. Honestly the nicest thing i can say is... the beach was great. The hotel needs to be cleaned up on the exterior, and check the plumbing. Definitely shouldn't be gurgling during the night. read more

We only stayed one night, but it was a very nice place! The room was small, but just right for the two of us. Beds are comfortable and the shower was good. Nice and clean too. This may not be a big thing, but I noticed the nice set up of everything when we first walked in. For example, the towels weren't just folded and piled, they were kind of decorative. :) We hope to come back again and stay longer! read more

We have been a couple times but it's getting a little rundown. The prices don't match the rooms.

Good value for the cost, great staff. Pattie was very helpful at check in. Nice pools or hit the beach. Close to everything, or dine in at Sloppy Joes with indoor or beach side tables. Great for the family beach trip!! read more

Location is great, but that's about it! We had a beach view room with a balcony booked, but they stuck us in the back corner above the extremely loud restaurant with live music. It was SO loud that after a long day of traveling we couldn't even watch TV or get some sleep. Also, you see that restaurant roof directly outside our window? There has been a man walking on it cleaning or something twice so far, so we have been keeping the curtains closed. Upon arrival the front desk person (who was very sweet) told my girls that they could go get free Henna tattoos or hair wraps by the pool. She said they were included in the $80 resort fee we just paid. Well, they weren't. The henna was $40 each (and turned out looking terrible). I asked to switch rooms but was told the other side of the resort would be even louder the next night because side of a wedding, and then we would have NO view of the beach. Overall, I'm pretty bummed about the resort. I should have been pushier upon check in and requested a different room just because of the crappy view, but I had no idea that the music would be so loud and for so late. Perhaps the resort should consider this when placing people with kids directly above the restaurant. read more

Stayed at this resort for wwe royal rumble.. resort was clean and room was the premium double queen facing the beach Stayed with my wife and both my two kids.

From a Former employee- The review is for the Assistant GM who had very little patience the employees. Only provided three half days of training before terminating me. No structured support for different learning styles. I realize hotel desks have steep learning curves and high turnover, but I'd suggest looking elsewhere. Plenty of employers do build in real training time and welcome people who learn differently. Sadly, this isn't the case at the Bilmar. read more

So the Bilmar Hotel is pretty nice and for me I will say it's one of the best on the strip, it started off a little bad for us due to only having one room reserved when we had 3 booked but they definitely made it right for us and that's great customer customer. I will also say that everyone at this Hotel is very friendly except for this one security guard that sits outside and has no sense of humor and isn't friendly at all, kinda sucks when you on vacation and you just ask a simple question like where should we park and check in. He came off with a big attitude, so they should look into someone else that had a better attitude. Now the rooms are very nice and clean as well as the bathrooms. Cleaning service is very nice as well and they take care of you. The Bilmar hotel has two restaurants attached to the Hotel and are very good, I spent a lot of time in Sloppy Joes. I also love the fact that you can just walk out to the beach from the Hotel, if you need chairs for the beach you just tell them your room number and they give you chairs. Great deal. I would definitely stay again. read more

What a great place to stay. Perks: The rooms are spacious. My king room had a bathroom which was essentially the size of my bathroom at home. A full kitchen, bar to sit at and plenty of other seating room. Oh, and the kicker, the view of the Gulf was out of this world. Lets back up a little bit. Bilmar Beach Resort is located in the heart of the Treasure Coast. What I loved the most is that while it has the charm of a hotel from the 70's, it doesn't have the dated decor. It's clean, somewhat elegant while still keeping in theme with the beach. It's just a really nice, friendly vibe. In the morning there is free coffee and in the afternoon free candy. You get free wifi and parking while staying there and you'll get a coupon for the bar located near the pool. There are private member's only areas that are only accessed by hotel patrons on the beach which are nice. The beach itself its worth five stars alone and it's literally in the back yard of the hotel. Due to the location of the hotel I didn't need my car one bit. I actually didn't want to leave the hotel at all either, but I made myself to venture out. I thought the room was exceptionally clean. The staff from the maids to the the woman who checked me in were all really friendly. I really enjoyed it and here and will surely be back. read more

My wife and I differ on vacation destinations. While the given common denominators are we both want to be with each other and we both want the destination to have beautiful views & water... that looks different in my mind's eye versus hers. In my mind, I want to be in the mountains hiking waterfalls, scenic overlooks and peaks. But my wife prefers the sound of ocean water lapping against the shore, deep sunsets and miles of beaches. Well if you follow my reviews you undoubtedly have noticed I've done a lot of hiking to a lot of waterfalls during the first half of this year. Primarily because they are easy and inexpensive day trips or short weekend getaways, but also because hiking is better in cooler weather. However, now that the heat has arrived and summer is in full swing, I dare not lose my life telling my wife we are going to the mountains again. Besides, SHE booked this trip so I had little say on where we were going! LOL Our credit card often invites us on time share presentations that basically pay for the accommodations as long as we attend a 90-minute presentation. Many people pass on these offers, but they are GREAT ways to travel and save! Bilmar Beach Resort happened to be the accommodations that were offered and what great accommodations they were. Located on Treasure Island between St. Pete Beach & Madeira Beach, it was the perfect place to hunker down with the love of my life. FIRST, let me say the BEACH here is extremely wide! Treasure Island has a boardwalk that makes walking along the beach super easy, but it also has about 900 feet of dry sand between the boardwalk and the Gulf waters. It's a HUGE beach, unlike the surrounding beaches that are narrower. My wife was in heaven each morning for quiet walks and each evening for sunset views (since it's west facing). SECOND, there are lots of walkable options for food and fun! The South building houses Sloppy Joe's with its killer blackened grouper sandwich, respectable shrimp n' grits and yummy pancakes in the morning. They have great Gulf views and a full bar. But directly across the street is Ricky T's Bar and I tell you what, it was hoppin'! Truly sounded like everyone was having a fantastic time with the live music and excited crowd. Around the corner is Captain Bill's s Oyster Bar and the oysters are fantastic. How could they not be when they have a guy who call himself the Mother Shucker shucking all the fresh oysters. THIRD, there are TWO pools and a second restaurant in the north building. I believe beach loungers also come with your stay and I also noticed free bikes available. Kayaks, surf/boogie boards and volleyball also offered. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, our tower room was cozy and comfortable. Outfitted with a huge flat screen tv, two queen bed, super comfortable mattresses & pillows, a small kitchen and barn door bathroom with backlit mirror and walk-in shower. The décor was bright and beachy, with splashes of color and conveniences such as fragrant hand/body washes + shampoo & conditioner dispensers. My wife wanted to take the body wash home because she loved the smell so much! Please know this is not a prestigious sort of resort, but in my opinion, I think they are doing a great job with what they have despite the obvious age of the buildings. FINAL THOUGHTS My only complaint is the lack of parking when you spend the day out and come back late. While there are enough spaces for all guests, the proximity to the beach and restaurants cause some spaces to be filled illegally. But to their credit they do try to keep unwanted cars out with a Lot Monitor and also have overflow parking across from the south tower next to Walgreens. So for all the reasons I have listed above, I'm gonna go all out and give them 5 stars! I would definitely stay here again and really appreciated the front desk staffs friendly recommendations! 2021 / 96 read more

We are at the Bilmar as I write this, on 8/22/25, day 6 of our week long Anniversary trip, and we have to go home to Massachusetts tomorrow morning. My husband & I are first-timers to this resort. We searched all over to find a place to vacation to this year, and we came across the Bilmar site. As I write this, while sitting on our 6th floor balcony at almost 10pm, I want to let you know that neither myself or my husband want to leave! This has been one of the most relaxing vacations we've ever had, and I mean that. The Bilmar is close to everything, whether it's shopping you want to do, or have dinner out close by, or grab a beer at Sloppy Joe's, you can do it all while never leaving the resort. We decided to spend almost every single day on the beach. That's another thing, the Bilmar is on the cleanest and most gorgeous beach! The water is so warm, the beach is so spotless, and the scent of the ocean is amazing! We found ourselves more relaxed and well rested on this trip more than any others we've been on. We slept in incredibly comfortable beds, and we both cannot remember a time when we slept until 9am, but we did every day! As I said, I am sitting out on the balcony and I just finished packing. My husband just finished, too, and we keep saying we don't want to leave this beautiful hotel. The staff were kind & gracious, from the check-in, to the Sloppy Joe staff, and to Aaron & Kevin at the pool. Oh, that's another thing! Not many resorts have beach chairs, but the Bilmar does. And they also have a few umbrellas that guests can use that were left behind by other guests. Both Aaron and Kevin were personable and kind, handing out free water bottles to us each morning and offering sunscreen, too. There was also a very nice older gentlemen at the pool, too, and I apologize for not getting his name! But everyone there each morning were great, and we appreciate you guys!!!!! We also were able to meet "Turbo", who is everyones' best beach friend. If you want a lounger or a large umbrella, please see Turbo. He's a great person who spoke with us everyday, we are now FB buds with him! But all good things have to end, but we want to thank everyone at the Bilmar Beach Resort for a great time! We plan on returning in the spring and we will be bringing the family with us. Thank you all again, we'll miss you and can't wait to return! read more

We have stayed here a few times now and love it! They have the best view in Treasure Island and they make the beach life easy and fun! The hotel is right on the beach they give you chairs, umbrellas, towels and bring the drinks right to you! The hotel is older but updated beautifully! The beach view rooms are worth it! The beds are comfortable and well designed! They have hooks, mini fridges and really nice bathrooms! They are clean modern and simply! The bars and restaurant was really good for a beach bar vibe! Wait staff was really helpful and nice! The hotel staff is great and always super accommodating! The pools are great if you have kids or you are on a weekend gateway with your spouse! I highly recommend staying here it is worth every penny! read more

This is not a resort..... not one activity..... maybe the overcrowded pool area.... nothing was free but water , coffee and a cookie. All bar/food was open up the public at all times,and they closed down the bar and grill to their guest when hosting event without tell the guest booking before hand. Which is annoying and had loud music people outside at any hour...... and also too many miscommunications with the guest and front desk.. . The best thing was that the rooms were clean. But I could go on about how it sucked. read more

DO NOT VISIT THIS PLACE IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY!!! THE WATER IS TOXIC AND MADE MY 14 MONTH OLD PUKE AND THE REST OF MY FAMILY SICK. THE DOOR TO THE ROOM TRAPPED MY BABY INSIDE AND THE ROOM WAS FREEZING WITH NO HEAT!!!! MANAGEMENT SENT ME A DISGUSTING REPLY ON GOOGLE WHICH I HAVE SCREEN SHOT AND INCLUDED IN MY REPLY THERE. PLEASE SEE GOOGLE REVIEWS AND AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS IF YOU HAVE YOUNG FAMILY!!! CLYDE SHOULD BE ABSOLUTLEY ASHAMED OF HIMSELF!!! Clyde and/or 'management', Are you seriously being condescending to me for placing my child in her pack and play while I grab the rest of my bags RIGHT OUTSIDE OF THE DOOR? Gross. Claiming something as 'state of the art' doesn't in fact make it such (In fact its quite laughable when you visit the property.) I also find it 'amusing' that when my husband ran down to the front desk they told him that the doors on the property are known to have issues-yet you seem clueless Your lack of ownership is appalling. Your lack of knowledge about your water supply is even more disturbing. However, I don't buy your ignorance. I did my research on your water supply after we left, now I know why you supply a few water bottles for customers....certainly not because you know your water is garbage, right??? This place is a joke and management is even worse. I will be sure to share your reply on every travel site possible. FAMILIES BEWARE!!! read more

Pretty lobby with nice workers. Rooms do not look like the pictures, they are run down and old. Woke up to drilling and maintenance at 7am. The cherry on top was the mold in their free coffee, looks like the machines haven't been cleaned in years. Beach was beautiful and we were excited to use the free kayaks and paddle-boards. However when we went to rent them, the worker said he didn't wanna put them out because he was working alone today. And he didn't feel like moving them closer to the water. Made us seem like it was our fault. Would not recommend staying here. read more

Went for a meeting. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Beach was beautiful. Food was good. Bed comfortable, pool cool. But really wish they had a water dispenser to refill a reusable water bottle in the lobby and in meeting rooms. So sad to see so much plastic waste with all the water bottles. Seems like it would be more cost effective and easier labor than lugging those cases. Small paper cups with nice dispensers is what 21st century hospitality requires. read more

First time stay at the Bilmar. Rooms are a little small but they are clean and the housekeeping staff were very helpful. We loved that there were multiple pools we could choose the crowd level and tended to gravitate to the one closest to Sloppy Joe's. We had a beachfront walk out room which we requested, think we'll choose to do adjoining rooms for more space next time however we will definitely be back. The location was great. We were able to go to a Rays game, have an evening at John's Pass which were both easy commutes. They had lots of game options on the sand, chairs and fire pits. Loved the laid back atmosphere here on Treasure Island after many years of the hustle of the "big" beach up the way. Already looking forward to the next stay. read more

What a tropical gem on Treasure Island. It was my first time there and i felt right at home. Great location, awesome staff. I came to the bar at sloppy joes all three nights because it was so much fun. Gio is hilarious and all the bar staff was great. I'll be back for sure. read more

My 5 star rating is for WES, the bartender at waves; Bilmar Cafe. The resort it's self is ok. Not great but worked for our little three day weekend getaway from Atlanta. The rooms were ok to say the most. Definitely overpriced for what they are. We hung out towel on the hook in our room and it fell of the wall. There were ants all over the dresser. I say it's "ok" for the staff and location only. Hotel itself is not great at all. Location is awesome and staff is super friendly. Bit what made my whole weekend was Wes. He was great with my kids and myself. Making us feel like family. He told us all about the area, places to eat and see, and made the whole experience a delight! Will stay somewhere else next time, but will come by the cafe to visit Wes when we are in the area!! A must to stop by and see Wes!!! read more

Overall, had a good experience here. It's in a great location but parking lot fills up quickly. They have additional parking but it's across the street next to CVS. Rooms were clean the the ocean view ain't bad. Glad I stayed here and not at Clearwater like I had planned originally. read more

Loved my stay!! 5 stars! Will definitely be back and bring the family for a vacation!! The beach was perfect!

first visit here in a while. The location is great, the beach is fabulous. Its an old hotel, but adequate. Not great, but it is at a matching price rate. BUT, 1. They charge a resort fee and it is NOT included in their published rates - double check. We prepaid the room and then got a big $80 surprise upon check-in. The manager, Clyde, was set on that it is the customers job to haggle with the reservation site over the issue and he was not nice about it. So if you like having to argue with the front desk, call the 800 number and going thru their voicemail, to complain about the dispute sure, stay here. Other hotels have just taken care of these kinds of issues, not made the vacationer manage it. Our reservation company gave us a credit but it was not our job to do that. So, meh. 2. Lets talk about "resort fees". Here it's $40 a night for 2 tiny kind of dirty pools with no life guards. And there are some bikes. So, meh. 3. Another tacky move is the envelope for cleaning tips. We are happy to tip, but the envelope is pretty opportunistic. Just pay your people. Not impressed. 4. The place is not sprinklered - but they do provide fireblankets under the kitchenette sink. So in case of fire, grab the blanket and hope it protects one of you. 5. Also Clyde, you did NOT give the best rate. (unlesss you mean best rate you can extract) - as your position was the resort fee was not included we didnt get that. Your answer was - "you paid it, you're not getting it back". And your idea of customer service is threat of bad reviews are "extortion" - so not sure customer service is your calling. 6. Oh, and there were 3 baby lizards in the room. One in the bathroom, one in the kitchen and one in the sleeping area. So. 5 stars for the location and minus 1 star for the age of the property minus 2 stars for management, minus 1 star for Clyde, plus 1 star for the lizards. read more

Visitors from out of town needed a place to stay on the super busy weekend leading up to new year's eve. They managed to snag a studio with small balcony overlooking the gulf at the Bilmar. The Bilmar is an older property that was renovated several years ago. It's also one of the larger hotels in Treasure Island. The room was nicely decorated. Bed was comfortable. Kitchen has the usual fridge, microwave and stove top. View from the 6th floor in the tower was fabulous. Great place to watch sunsets! Amenities were nice....pool, spa and one hour paddle board or kayak courtesy of a guy named Turbo. Chairs on the beach along with towels. Not bad for $230 a night. Staff was super nice. Negatives were the age of the place and odd elevator. You need a room key to go up. Kid protection they said. Parking was kind of a pain. Recommend. read more

The remodel is perfect fit, and clean update. Great banquet staff. And location, beach and sun is uncompromising.....great for multi room reservations, groups extended family. With lots to do for all. read more

Very nice staff. Crazy expensive. The beach is very far from the resort, I believe I counted over 500 steps. Not worth having to spend the extra money to have beach front unless you used binoculars. The pool was nothing special but they did have some old rafts floating around. Booked as a hot rate with Hotwire will never make that mistake again. The rooms were cleaned but not attended to. It was just okay. Not the raving great place that some of the reviewers wrote. Too much money for a sub par resort. read more

My husband and I are so glad we selected this resort. It has a neat, vintage vibe with some nice updates. Love the boardwalk by the beach! It's a great place to walk or bike...and of course the beach is just yards away. The small resort fee when you check-in is worth it for the complimentary beach chairs, bikes, kayaks, etc. The food in both of the restaurants is good. We had to be patient to get a table one night at Sloppy Joe's. Because I always appreciate this in other reviews, here are my pros and cons: Pros: 1. We got a room with a kitchenette and a grocery store is very close by...3 minute walk. 2. Lots of amenities including fun beach games on the sand. 3. The restaurants are good. 4. Beds and linens are comfy. 5. The staff is friendly. 6. The boardwalk! Most hotels here don't have one. Makes it an easy walk to bars/restaurants. Cons: 1. Not enough water pressure in the shower. 2. Parking can look skimpy but it's not. The staff will tell you to move an orange cone. They protect spots for their guests from the restaurant crowds. 3. The neighborhood can be loud with live music and activities. We found that the "white noise" from the air conditioner covers it up nicely. We slept great. 4. Service in the cafe is slow but our waitress kept the coffee flowing. She was a peach! My husband and I will come back here. We loved it! read more
