The hotel

Nestled on the white-sand beaches of Florida’s stunning Gulf Coast, this delightful 410 acre resort-style hotel is full of relaxing features to make your holiday one to remember. You may find yourself unable to do anything but soak up the sunshine on one of the comfy loungers beside the beautiful Gulf-side swimming pool. Or you may prefer to take your relaxation to a whole new level by visiting The Spa and enjoying a treatment or massage. Either way, you’ll instantly forget about normal day-to-day life, while keen golfers will be in seventh heaven lowering their handicaps at one of the 2 challenging courses. And with 20 Har-Tru tennis courts, tennis enthusiasts are served up stirring sets of excitement daily.

Alex at the beach club was amazing. He was extremely attentive and made our stay the BEST experience! He got our beach towels everyday and set up our cabana with ice cold waters. His staff catered to our every need and I will definitely be coming back!

Alex at the beach club was absolutely amazing! He gave us the utmost undivided attention and had exceptional service. He checked in on often, had our chairs already set up when we got down to the beach, brought us cold waters wrapped in a cold towel to keep them cold, and was overall great! Definitely will be back!!

Just checked in last night and the resort looks just as beautiful as before the hurricanes. They even upgraded our room to a beachfront suite and it’s just gorgeous! The staff is amazing and I highly suggest you plan a trip soon! Lots of restaurants opening up around as well!

The resort is lovely and serene with an excellent staff all the way around. Here are the con’s - only one pool and it gets crowded on the weekend even during off season. There is a resort fee and you get charged $25?plus tip for an umbrella on the beach. The lounge chairs do not have cushions. Never had this happen at an upscale resort. We stayed in a two bedroom so we could cook most nights. Refrigerator was not working properly and had to have it replaced second day. The dishwasher was not working and I ended up washing dishes until it was fixed and it still didn’t work well. Shame on the resort for not seeing to it that these things work when you are staying in the most expensive room category. They did upgrade us to ocean view but that was because the building we were booked in wasn’t being used. Read less
