First time at this hotel and definitely will make it a recurrent hotel. Only 90 min from the Woodlands. I was surprised to find such a good hotel that I didn’t know of. Great staff, beautiful and clean rooms. Excellent view of the ocean. My kids enjoyed the beach and the pool. And last but not least, very convenient to have the restaurants on-site. We tried the Italian and was delicious. Coming back ;)

This hotel is really a treat with modern, exciting, and beautiful amenities. Yet it is casual enough to feel comfortable. The staff is accommodating, sincere, but really let the guest remain the focus. In late September, it was not crowded, so the pool was very accessible. The food at the Grotto was good and affordable. The Bananas Fosters pancake and other breakfast meals were very good. The beach across the street was nice, walkable and seemed safe. Location is close to many things. I loved having the balcony overlooking the beach and pool. I don’t think this hotel can be any better.

Room was nice looking, mattress was firm horrible and bathroom looked like a motel 6 with not so clean grout and white caulking everywhere put on by a child. For $400-$600 a night was expecting better. Because our friend’s condo at same location was way better and cheaper!!! They had more space and kitchen. They need to clean up the details in restroom and replace mattresses.

Pool is terrible. No chiller and the water is hot. Also the pool is cloudy and and SLIMMY. Soo much sun tan lotion. IDK how you can do it but get the walk up bar people to use the restroom instead of peeing in the pool. Food and staff are absolutely amazing!
