Girls Getaway

Great location close to restaurants, malls, beach and Harbor boardwalk. The resort itself has on-site restaurant with live band on Friday, which was very enjoyable. Love the outside bar near the pool. The staff was very friendly upon check-in. However, their rule is to check in on the dot 4 o’clock not a minute earlier, so don’t think you can get early check-in, which wasn’t a problem for us. We ate lunch at Joe’s Crab Shack across the street.

It was ok

I wasn’t impressed by this property. It needs a lot of updating. I’ll start by saying the amenities were nice and family friendly. The unit itself needs some love. It was technically clean. The patio could use pressure washing, the counter tops had rust on them. The bathroom needs updating as the fixtures were rusted and discolored. I actually ended up staying with family because I wasn’t happy with the unit.

Nice getaway for two couples

Perfect for two couples! I found it was hard to find something to accommodate just two couples because other places would have a king and then two twin beds or bunk beds but this met every need with 2 whole beds and bathrooms and nice amenities! Also there was easy communication between us and the renters .

Bday getaway

The resort was wonderful! Perfect distance from beach and attractions. Everyone was super nice, the only problem was with the pool over the weekend—someone had some sort of accident and we couldn’t use it at all for two days of a 4 day wknd. Besides that it was so nice 😊

Loved our getaway

This spot is close to the elevators so it was easily accessed. No noise from it though so that was great. My son was greeted with a special treat for his birthday and we have that memory to take home with us as well. We would 100% stay here again.

Wish the AC was cooler when we arrived. It took a day for the AC to cool the place down from 78. The bedrooms also stay pretty hot. Have to keep fans and blinds shut. Can’t enjoy the sunshine.

A nice place to stay

We found the property to be clean as well as nicely furnished. It had everything one needs to cook a meal and the only drawback was that it was on the second floor so there wasn't a view from the balconies. We're not "balcony people" so that didn't bother us in the least. The beds were very comfortable and I would stay there again in the future.

Great family vacation!

Our room was nice, needs some cosmetic updates but nothing major. The location was great. It was close to Henderson Beach which was great. The Resort however needs some attention. Several doors throughout the property were broken our entire stay and one of the elevators was broken also. No big deal for us because we used the stairs most of the time because our room was on the 2nd floor. Pool area was nice but didn’t use it much. We are beach people. We would recommend this property and would highly consider staying here again.
