Love the idea of rooftop pool. Spilled coffee was up the wall and over white bedspread at arrival, requested it to be changed never happened. Beware they change pricing due to memorial weekend and charge $500 for a cabana , this didnt include any food or drinks. Orginally priced at $250 with 150 food and drink min. No service at the cabana after 5 or 6 whatever they decide. Never got the bottle of wine included with expedia rewards. Marriott has purchased so they blamed everything on the transition. Cant charge to room, must use credit card. valet request on app didnt work so no need to use it. Checkout a nightmare they are a nickel and dime resort. No need to have daily room service they only make the bed, dont clean floors (it is a beach property) or wipe. Dont recommend staying here at all. Good luck Marriott make this a better organized hotel.

So first of all, the address that Expedia shows is the incorrect address. I booked this hotel thinking it was a 10 minute walk to the beach, it was a 45 minute walk. Then, when it was time to check-in, their system was down. No fault to the staff, but we had to wait 3 hours to check in to the hotel, and they did not offer anything in consolation for the wait. Just overall unhappy with this experience, personally.

The reason with my lower rating has to do with the bedding, noises in our room and our AC cooling. The bed was hard as a rock and pillows very uncomfortable. The cooling of our room at night our entire stay was sub-par. I kept turning it lower each night and still woke up warm in our room. I addressed these issues with staff with no concern. On a side note, the property was beautiful, clean and right by an area with shops and dining options.
