Beautiful Hotel / Great Service

I stayed here 4 nights for a business trip. The rooms were lovely and the service including the maid, concierge, bell boy, taxi/shuttle, etc... were the best. It is expensive, but there are refridgerators in every room and if you walk down Ocean Drive to the 7-11 and cross the bridge, there is a Walmart that you can buy some items from and save money. There are some inexpensive restaurants about 0.5 miles away but if you want to sightsee, you will need to rent a car. Budget is across the street and well-priced. I found the hotel had everything I needed. The pools are incredible, warm, and the beach front access is to die for. Nice hotel -- would stay again. For ocean front room, we paid *$ per night during low season.
Loved it!

Took 3 kids down for Spring Break, had a blast! Hotel is beautiful. Food is very pricy, but good. Hotel has a lot for kids to do. The pool is awesome and they have a great gym. Golf course is beautiful. Don't waste your money on the Spa, it is nice, but the massage therapists do not have a clue what they are doing. Paid for a 50 min deep tissue massage and got a 30 min foot rub??? (Spa and Golf Course is not attached to hotel, you have to take a shuttle to get to them.) Hotel staff was great and very helpful. Definitely would go back.

Family Fun Weekend

We only stayed for one night, and that was the only mistake we made. Two would have been better. Our 6 year old was so upset that we had to leave so soon! The bar/restaurant on the intracoastal side of the property was really neat. Kids loved the big "bed" lounge chairs. The pool was crowded, but the 6 and 8 year loved it and that's the most important. Room was great. No complaints. We will go back.
Very Poor Value, but a comfortable room

The room and bed are comfortable, and that is the ONLY positive thing I can say. I have been here 4 nights for a conference. Everything is an additional charge, from the internet (even from the business center), to the beach chairs, to ridiculous charges for water, drinks, food. The beach is lovely - when the gates to it are not locked! The lobby area is lovely but the noise is so loud that it is uncomfortable to walk through it. The location is terrible - there are no other restaurants or coffee shops to walk to, no shopping. Definitely NOT a resort I would choose for personal travel.
