    This hotel offers great activities for kids and a lovely proximity to the beach, making it perfect for families. My room, with two queen beds, was comfortable and clean, and the friendly bartenders at the beach bar provided excellent service. I encountered issues with housekeeping, as trash was only emptied once, and the pool area could use some updates and better maintenance. the first night, parking was a challenge due to guests reserving spots. These points suggest that while the hotel has great potential, improvements in cleanliness and management could enhance the experience significantly.

    Amazing access to the beach and nearby attractions

    I absolutely loved how I could just walk right onto the beach and enjoy the beautiful views, plus there are many restaurants and fun spots just steps away, like Rockin Tacos and Rick's On The Island, all within a 5 to 10-minute walk which made my evenings great, not to mention the pools and hot tubs were gorgeous and relaxing after my day of exploring, but the room had a bit of a musty smell that could be improved.

    This is our fourth visit. The resort is superbly kid-friendly. Daily activities at check-in keep the little ones entertained. Proximity to pools and beach is a huge plus—literally steps away. The heated pool was a welcome relief in cooler weather, and restrooms were clean. communication about room views is misleading. I expected an ocean view but found myself across from a pool instead. The staff’s demeanor has deteriorated over the years. Additional fees for parking and cabanas feel unjustified. We were separated in different buildings, which was inconvenient. Chairs and umbrellas on the beach take up significant space. Transparency regarding rates could improve. The potential is there, but execution needs refinement.

    I did not want to leave there, spent great time and ca n't recommend it highly enough. The hotel was a cozy base for enjoying an amazing area, short walk to the beach bar as well as the boardwalk. I liked the room with a king bed.

    The staff - some of them were very rude.

    The room was filthy, with a disgusting fridge and rusty lamps. Instead of relaxing, we found ourselves cleaning just to feel somewhat comfortable. It was utterly disappointing for the price we paid.

    I loved the beachfront view from my room; it was breathtaking! The heated pool was perfect for our not-so-summery trip, and the kids activities kept my little ones entertained all day. The staff was fantastic, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived!

    can just recommend 🥰✨

    Great beach location with promising amenities

    The Island Resort's proximity to the beach is outstanding. We enjoyed the vibrant kids' activities and live music by the grotto pool.

    Clean and very familiar. There's lemonade, cookies, and water for free. Rooms are small, but cosy and functional. We had a small balcony overlooking the sea. Location's great, right on the beach. The staff is very friendly. Breakfast is really good for America. Fresh fruit, real cutlery and freshly made pancakes, scrambled eggs etc... We'd come back.
