Solo trip
This was my second trip and first solo trip and it was absolutely beautiful! The room was clean and cleaned daily. The view was amazing and the hotel staff was outstanding! The only thing I felt was missing was a microwave in the room. Otherwise do yourself a favor and book this hotel OMG excellent!!!

First time to pay for parking - not a fan of that & I would have used that as a consideration if comparing with other properties. I was unaware of that until reservation was made. Staff & personnel were very friendly & accommodating.

Stunning property right on the beach and minutes from anything you want or need. Use the free 3 hour bike share to get around and see the park, drive to Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge, Fort Morgan, take the ferry to Dauphin Island, so much to see and do.

It is a unique place with wonderful beach access. Food is pretty good. Bar prices a bit high. Free amenities were non-existent. I thought it was tacky to charge $3 for bottles of water in the room. Prices paid for rooms should include a free bottle of water, shampoo, shower cap sort of thing

This is such a beautiful hotel and is one of our favorites in the Gulf Shores area! The inside lobby is absolutely gorgeous with great seating areas. We especially love enjoying the ocean view with a coffee in hand from the deck next to the espresso stand. They made the outside bar area bigger and also have lots of great seating out there. The beach area is gorgeous and a short walk down to the pier. We’ve seen lots of dolphins playing in the surf. The food in the restaurant is good. When the weather is nice, they offer lots of outdoor seating options with great ocean views. They also have a really cute gift shop that carries nice adult clothing to beach bags and sun glasses. The only negative I have found about the hotel is that the beds are not comfortable, which is too bad given all of the fine attention to detail that was put into the rest of the property.
