Just ok
We were upgraded when we arrived to a room and found the previous guests items in drawers, used soap, a cooler..which we were happy to accept. The resort was great, food was just okay- go to Carolina Crab Co for amazing seafood.

Not happy with check in
We were given keys to someone else’s room. This day in age, that is NOT okay. My husband walked in on a teenage girl. One, we could have been shot. Two, imagine how that poor girl must have felt. Not okay. Resort is much smaller than made out to be online. I don’t understand a resort fee if you have to pay extra for chairs and bikes. What exactly is that fee for? Everything else was fine. Staff was great. No cabanas like you claimed. Beautiful wedding. Compared to others resorts we have stayed at the the price is worth it so we won’t be staying here again.

Disappointing
I was disappointed. We were there 4 nights. One night, they forgot to give us towels, the next night they did not service our room. Given the cost of the room almost $500 per night, I expected our room to be cleaned. I had to go to the front desk 2 and they did not help with the simple cleaning issues

Disappointed at the Sonesta
The refrigerator in the room wasn’t clean. We asked for clean linen and we were told cleaning staff wasn’t available and it was a good chance we would not be able to get clean linens.We were able to get done about an hour later. The rugs in the hotel was dirty and for 500 a night Ziyar feel it was unacceptable, will not be going back.
