Location was great, hotel was very nice. Staff across their functions were friendly, always engaging, impressed they were busy working regardless day or night. Staff, food, and location will have me book again.
Foodcraft breakfast & dinner was excellent, we'll try The Perch next time, worth the price. The Dragonfly service was very slow, especially if you sit at the bar, and food and drinks were underwhelming and overpriced, except for the wings.
Room was fine, seemed a bit tight, and the big stand up lamp in room was weird and was in the way. The bed was maybe too soft, and felt like an undersized King, but was okay. It would be nice to have a fan available. Otherwise, bathrooms clean, towels were good quality. Shower was large stand up but smaller single showerhead needs to be large to cover two people. Marsh view was fine, but wished we knew the roadway was right there. We liked the public balconies with seating and ocean views on each level. Mostly dipped in the ocean yet pool was nice. We will book a different style room next time so not adjourning and see how it is.
Do not like the idea of an expanded pool area and dune removal for 2026. If I wanted a typical resort feel, I’d book in Orange Beach.
