Excellent view & easy access to beach.

Overall experience was great. Perfect spot for the beach. Only one elevator was working and it was a busy weekend so that was a bummer.

Great stay, only downside was 1 of the elevators being broken

When I arrived at this property I was notified that the ocean view room that I had booked someone had smoked in and that was the last ocean view room they had available. They told me we could stay in that one but the smell was pretty bad. She offered me a different room without a view and would take care of the price difference seeing as it would be cheaper. They charged me $157 more than what my original booking was. They had two elevators but only one was operating. The one that was operating was literally on its last leg, and took a really long time to get up and down it. The ice machine on the 3rd floor never worked. The room was clean and I was happy to see that. Other than that there’s nothing to rave about.
8.0
The property was clean and staff were friendly. Location was perfect and easy access to the beach. One of the elevators wasn’t working during our stay but that was the only issue.
2.0
1 working elevator the entire trip…had to take the stairs because it took forever for the elevator, housekeeping never came to clean my room the entire stay, I had a garbage bag full of trash in the room and had ask them to remove it from the room. Ice machine on the 2nd floor didn’t work. Some of the employees are rude as if they are not happy to work there. Michael at the Vincenzo’s restaurant was the only thing good on this stay. He’s polite and great customer service. Location is great but won’t stay here again. Not the Marriott standard I was hoping for
2.0
Excellent spot to vacation with family. But
Very difficult and time consuming leaving room —only one elevator the entire stay and 15 -30 minutes to leave each time. Soap dispenser empty. Ice machine was always empty. Beach entrance “wash your feet” fountain not working. So track sand in everyday.

It is convenient.

When we arrived I couldn’t figure out the buttons on the elevator and thought it was broken. The nice lady, I did not catch her name was a huge help and even rode the elevator with us to make sure we knew how to work it. You couldn’t just push the floor button and the doors closed. Very nice lady and there was a maintenance gentleman that was a big help also. Only negative is..we wished they offered continental breakfast😢
2.0
The main issue was only one of the elevators worked and the key cards would not work from the outside for the stairs. The wait for the elevator was ridiculous. It was reported that the keycards were not working at the stairs multiple times.

Only one elevator that was scetchy, stained carpet, leaking shower, and very small room with a queen bed. Definately not your typical courtyard. However a very friendly staff.
8.0
one of the elevators not functional which was a great issue and inconvenience as it took a lot of time to get to the car and back to room.
6.0
The location and convenience to the beach is the only reason I intend coming back. But k am disappointed that only one service elevator was working considering that it’s going to be a busy weekend. The staff have been very helpful though but the owner needs to fix that elevator.

It was a nice place to stay for the night. Close to the beach.
6.0
This was a somewhat overpriced, average property. While it was technically a beachfront hotel, it was set well back off the beach behind an older, 1-story structure. Because of this, the view included vistas off the ocean but also of the parking lot and support areas on the property. In addition, a long, odd, elevated walkway was installed to get guests from the hotel to the beach. It worked, but it looked like a workaround.
The property shows signs of aging. It wasn’t terrible, and buildings have a life cycle, but great management and facilities staff can work to slow the decline. It’s possible to keep older properties looking sharp. This one doesn’t quite get it.
Not a major problem, but the shower valve had to be cranked down to keep the head from dripping. Another indication of how the facilities are maintained.
Overall, this is an ok property. If you need a please to stay, this will do, but better values can be found with little effort.

6.0
The front desk staff were amazing, but we had daily issues with the cleaning staff. We would leave the hotel at 8:00 am and they would be standing in the hall on their cellphones. When we came back in late afternoon our room was still not cleaned. I had to go ask for clean towels, since they never cleaned. When we left for dinner they came and made beds, and then took our clean towels. They did not refill coffee or soaps.
8.0
Wonderful hotel very private with beach access. Could use a different way to access the walkway to the beach. You had togo through the frontdesk and dining area, or all the way to the parking and go through the pool area..
8.0
So upon arrival we learned we had to go up a floor to reach the lobby. Parking area is under hotel. I booked this hotel because their photos give off the idea that the hotel is on the beach. My in-laws are 70 and have a hard time walking and wanted to see the beach. The photos gave off a vibe that you walk out the door to a poolside beach. There is actually an elevated walkway that you have to take to reach the beach that goes down but the walk back up was pretty tough. Also I hopped floors for two days and all the ice machines weren’t functioning. I had to go to the front desk to get ice. If you have any trouble walking be careful where you book. The room was clean, and most of the staff was friendly. however the reason we took the trip was so they could enjoy the beach however they never made it to the sand so it was a waste of $500 for the room and the 4 hour drive to get there. I did voice my concern when we arrived but we were locked in with expedia and no rooms were available in the area so we had to stay. I’m posting an honest review for others. This would be a great place for families with children .

Very nice Beachfront Hotel and a quite and small property located right on this beautiful white sanded and mesmerizing beach of the Okaloosa Island. Rooms are very nice and clean and the hotel service was excellent . We are definitely planning to return.
4.0
Overall, the stay was very pleasant. Only two real complaints to mention and one of them is just a personal preference more than a legitimate complaint. I went to get ice and the ice maker on every floor was broken. Not a deal breaker but disappointing nonetheless. The second thing was the shower design. It was one of those open concept doors with half a glass door near the shower head but the other side was wide open. It made it difficult to take a real hot shower as your backside is always exposed to open air. Like I said, not a legitimate complaint as much as a personal preference. Overall not too bad.

Our room was located where drain pipes were very noisy - yes it was raining but it was weird and loud to hear water freely running in the walls

Stayed here only one night during a business trip. Great place and would love to go back sometime to explore the area. Great beach! Starbucks on-site was a nice bonus.
5.0
Very clean, affordable, friendly staff, and right on the beach! The hotel is in pretty quiet area. The rooms were very clean. For added security, you needed to scan your room key to go past the lobby (loved that!) They also have a ramp that leads right to the beach - my daughter loved playing with the beach toys the front desk team gifted her. Will definitely stay here again!
