My stay at the resort was quite an experience. The location is lovely, with easy access to nearby restaurants and a beach, though I found the beach to have more stones than sand. The room I stayed in was disappointing and really needs a renovation, considering the high price I paid. On the plus side, I appreciated the helpful staff who did their best to provide good service.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was quite convenient for exploring Marsh Harbor and the beach had its charm, the rooms left much to be desired.

The hotel is situated along the highway and while it has a beach, it's rocky and not the best for swimming. The rooms really need a renovation, and I felt like I wasn't getting my money's worth given the high price tag. On a positive note, the staff at the front desk was very friendly and accommodating, which helped make my stay a bit more pleasant.

Rooms

The rooms definitely need a big renovation as they feel outdated. I wasn't impressed considering the expensive price I paid—I've stayed in better motel rooms along the highway for half the price.

There are some nice amenities, but the beach area isn’t well-maintained and the landscaping needs some attention. The pool area was decent, though.

While the hotel has some stunning views, the overall experience left much to be desired. The rooms are quite dated and feel overpriced for what they offer. The service was pleasant, which is a nice touch, but unfortunately, the beach wasn’t as inviting due to its rocky nature. Overall, I would say it’s a mixed bag, and there are certainly better options out there for the price.

Rooms
