This 382-room beach hotel has all the makings of a classic family vacation. Direct beach access, a poolside whirlpool, beach volleyball courts, an outdoor fireplace and a playground by the beach give guests plenty of reasons to get outside.
The south-side pool and Rum Runners Bar & Grille completed renovations in late 2018. The grille offers specialty cocktails, craft beers, appetizers and live entertainment; while pools provide the option to soak up rays in a lounge chair or rent a cabana (for an additional fee).
Little ones can occupy themselves on the beachside playground and in the Xbox game room, while furry family members can appreciate the hotel's welcoming pet policy (deposit and documentation required). Lots of shopping and dining options are a five-minute drive away on historic Corey Avenue.
Some rooms offer wet bars without stove tops and some feature balconies with Gulf views. There is a resort fee, which covers Wi-Fi, parking, bicycle usage (based on availability), live entertainment daily, two bottles of water upon check-in and more.

Very enjoyable. Celebrating an Anniversary .Front desk clerk upgraded and gave us a room with a Gulf view king suite. Nice.e
Other Comments
Only patrons in the Compass Grille for dinner. We were wondering what that was about, but soon understood why. Made reservation and indicated anniversary was being celebrated, but obviously reservations were not necessary and there was no acknowledgment of the special occasion. Staff was using a carpet cleaner in the dining room for first 15-20 minutes after we were seated: too noisy, no sensitivity to people trying to enjoy their wine and order their meal. So think other guests have had similar experiences and don't go there. We learned the hard way. Online it indicated there was an early bird, but waitress indicated that was not so. Given a teaspoon to retrieve mussels from a deep pot. Had to ask again and were finally given tongs. Had to "ask" for a sharp knife to cut the duck. Would not recommend the restaurant for dinner.
Breakfast buffet was adequate and service (Bailey) good.

It was a very comfortable resort style stay. There is a good amount of things to do and they try very hard to keep the pool area popping with activities. Unfortunately the pool is a bit small for the size of the resort. But with that said the beaches are huge and beautiful. Lots of pillows on the beds and very clean. Staff is phenomenal. Great stay.

Check in process was extremely slow on a Friday (3 people on 2 computers with a long line.). The staff was mostly great. I did notice that only certain people were offered free punch but I let it pass. The rooms are spacious with a microwave, sink, full refrigerator and coffee machine. There was 4 adults in our party and we found out that the tub drainage was extremely slow between showers. The sink also turned out to have drainage issues. We let that pass too as we were only there for 1 night. We were awakened at 9am by the maid, checkout time is 11am. When asked what time is checkout she said "now ". Language issue - we let that pass too. Check out again was another long line. same two girls at 1 computer. Pool are was great with lots of lounge chairs available. Plenty of activities and live music.

The check-in experience was way too long. They offered alcohol to help pass the time easier, but I don’t drink. They never provided vouchers for the $40 breakfast. We were never asked if we needed anything poolside by the servers and we spent hours at the pool. The location was amazing (beach was stunning)!
Other Comments
The rooms appear dated. When I booked I didn't realize the access to the rooms was from the outside and I traditionally feel safer when the rooms are only accessible from inside. Our first room was very small and we were moved to a family suite for an additional $20/night. When we arrived there was a huge hole in the bathroom wall, which has since been covered with a plate. The a/c vent and curtains are dirty. I just stayed at the Marriott in Marco Island and decided to give you guys a try, but ended up being underwhelmed by the accommodations.

Understaffed at front desk. No answers when front desk called to find out if room service was available. When I booked online even though I put in for two nights in a row, supposedly travel zoo sent it as two separate 1 night stays, per the front desk. So, the hotel staff had to arrange for us to stay in the same room, which took time,.
I used the dated dirty, public restroom while that occurred. I also called the day before to find out if the rooms had tubs or just showers so I could bring bath soaks or leave them home. No tubs. Room was clean and large, but quite dated. It has old time feel, not due to antiques but due to being old and run down. Plus, we had a headache with room service because they thought we were checking out and someone else checking in after only our 1st night due to how it was arranged in their computer system. So we had to go ask for towels and such.

We headed straight for the beach and had two chairs waiting for us. We ended the day back at the pool listening to live music. We never left the resort. Multiple restaurants and choices available.

Though the Staff were very friendly, the Resort's processes made for slow service. Check-in took forever, and they didn't have the TravelZoo reservation correct (only 2 nights instead of 3). Maid service was poor and non-existent one day, even after multiple calls to Front Desk. Though spacious, the rooms are from the 1980's.

The hotel had difficulty giving people the rooms they booked. As I stood in the checkout line the second day to try to get the room I booked, there were three other guests with the same issue.
The staff doesn't seem to notice trash sitting outside the rooms, in the hallways, or by the pool. When you complain, it takes 3 hours for someone to handle the matter.
They will not check you in until 4PM - period. Then be prepared for 20 people in line and only 2 people behind the desk to service them.

We had a partial ocean view which was a surprise and really nice. A good stay for the Travelzoo price.

After waiting 55 minutes to check in, they told me the reservations were made for JULY 25. I had to wait another 35minutes. (First big Problem).
Now, it took me another 35minutes for checkout. Somebody SHOULD tell them and TEACH them : "it is more important to have a line for checkouts than check in", passenger may miss their flights, or a Limo, or an Uber,or a taxi waiting.

There was a minor hiccup regarding the breakfast vouchers. Despite turning in my vouchers the cost of breakfast still appeared on my invoice. I didn't notice it until I was half-way to my car. I think they fixed it for me but I won't know for sure until my monthly statement arrives. They need to figure out a system where this doesn't happen. It's a great amenity but the gliche left a sour taste in my mouth (pun intended).

The room was not clean! One bed was made with clean sheets, the other had dirty sheets. There was a dead roach on the sofa bed a mb s candy crumbs on the other bed (clearly, someone had a snack on top of the bed after it was made). It was very noticeable as the bed is the first thing you see when enterung the room. So, it was just left there. Lack of care! The floor was dirty, sandy and grity. We found a house keeper and borrowed a broom to sweep ourselves...no offer for her to do so, after bringing it to her attention. We swept up a big pile of dirty and dust that obviously gathered over time. There are so many more things but I've run out of time to share. I hope to return to share for others to be aware of.

The only comments I have for the suggestion box are: They have switched to paper straws at the inside restaurant Compass Grill, but they're still using plastic at both of the beach bars, Rum Runners and Harry's... They really need the paper straws at both of the outside bars to prevent injury and or death to the sea creatures. The beach chair area needs a trash can in the middle as well as on each end, to prevent the abundance of litter all over the beach.

The staff were rude. The room looked beautiful bathroom had mold (I am highly allergic) tried to switch was given a humified that worked for an hour. Just as we fell asleep an hour later work up to smell of burning - freaked us out. My room was above the service room and the smell of chemical gas was strong. I immediately became congested and had trouble breathing. I tried to get a refund to leave but was told no. I tried to change rooms called every hour; no success. My daughter brought from home breathing machine to help with my asthma. They deducted the FULL amount and with wrong rates. They even charged incidentals for all days reserved in full instead of per day. We ended up staying at a friends room nearby until check out & basically used the room to shower and change. The lobby was filled with anger customers... We heard room was not available, not cleaned. One lady was showing customers in line she was changed twice and the room had multiple roaches. They had two wedding events & accommodated the non-staying guest before paid guest. We were told to park in the overflow parking lot which was across the street. They had one pool open causing significant over crowding little kids were getting hurt from people jumping into the pool. The location was good. The pool (beside over crowding) and bar area was nice - that is all. I would not recommend this hotel while under construction. Check all your rates carefully as they will deduct ALL charges for all days IMMEDIATELY UPFRONT. If you have allergy take extra medicine just in case.

Hotel was in the middle of renovation which we did not know so sections were shut off making getting around the property difficult at times and noisy as well as one restaurant closed and a pool so the pool that was open was extremely busy. Front desk staff was not the most helpful and provided almost no informaiton at check in so we were lost on the property. Parking spaces are extremely small and there were not enough for the cars there so people were parked in driving lanes making it hazardous to drive and impossible to walk around with how close together the cars were. Breakfast food was okay but would not pay that much for the food if it had not been included.

The coupons for the free rum runners and the rum punch happy hour are a wasted effort. They both taste the same...very sugary and no rum taste at all.

The serving staff at Rum Runners were not well informed about a simple question as their closing time. Several staffers were asked and they did not have a solid answer.
While construction is taking place to parts of the resort, sprucing up of the main areas is really needed.

The rooms were gross. There was blood and dirt on one of the clean towels. The floors were dirty. Poor drainage and puddles everywhere which led to mud in the rooms.

Questions were asked about our reason for visiting. For our birthday response was followed by an upgrade offer to a king with a partial water view on a high floor. And of course we accepted.

Location is amazing! Staff is wonderful! Angela and Solomon were the best at Rum Runner pool bar! Menu at the restaurant/bar and grill had great selection with excellent taste. On the downsize, the room had a very tiny bathroom and it had no microwave. We travelled with a toddler and I had hard time finding a way of hearing up her milk. Overall a great experience! Thank you!

We were overcharged by the hotel. We were chatrged $37.88 for beach umbrellas which were part of the resort fee that was included in the Travelzoo package. I made 4 phone calls to the hotel, emailed them, was promised a refund on my charge and it has not happened. It has been a week, no refund and I feel ripped off by this resort. This is totally unacceptable

Only one pool was open. The room was tiny. The toilet was old and not working properly in the "remodeled" room. One of the elevators was not working and we had to wait a long time, especially the morning of checkout. Construction trucks arrived every morning at 6:15 and woke us up with the loud beeping. The guests at the pool were smoking and there were full ashtrays everywhere outside. The tables and chairs at the pool were old and rusty. I would NOT recommend this resort!

Hotel was fine. Towels dirty when we got there. Elevator broke down creating long waits to get to room. Most staff friendly, but some not. Not really hotel's fault but some patrons were too rowdy making for an unpleasant pool experience. Drinking in pool, throwing dirty cups in pool. Felt gross going into pool after that. Overall couldn't beat the price and location.

Great location...Rooms have a great theme but weren't the cleanest (hair stuck to the baseboards and warped bathroom door just painted over). Restaurant had great affordable food but at every meal I had to find the waiter to take my order and then it would take about 30 minutes to get my meal-very slow service. Still the place had a nice ambiance for the price. Definitely like a 3 star resort.

The staff are completely incompetent. Misinformation, dismissive, unprofessional are words that come to mind to discribe my one night stay. The rooms, although remodeled needed better attention to cleanliness. From dust, marks and scratches to the toilet running all night, it was not a comfortable stay. Not to mention I have three pending changes on my credit card and one room was put in there system as a no show so some man walked in on my sister while she was changing. Management hid instead of having the decency to call or speak with us. Never again!

Great place but parking is a BIG issue. There aren't enough spaces. Thank goodness the front desk about us to use the managers parking space. I don't know what the other guests did who are still driving around. Needless to say very frustrated. I think it will be a great resort once the renovations are complete. However the construction being performed did not impact our trip at all.

It wasn’t what was pictured on travelzoo. The pictures showed what the resort will look like once renovated but it wasn’t that nice. My suite wasn’t available and I purchased a direct ocean view and they gave me a side view. I was sad since I paid for the best option available and don’t feel like I got my money’s worth.

The room floors were filthy. People were in our room the night before. So they supposedly cleaned it. The floor was all tile. Our feet were black. Called the front desk, nobody came. Went down to the front desk and showed the manager my feet. They called a housekeeper up, he came with a big blue dry floor mop and spray bottle. He got it 60 percent clean. Went to go to bed and had to wash my feet. Got up the next morning and with two bath towels and some soap cleaned and dried the floor. My husband took those towels down to the front desk. Was told no manager two times. He went down at 1 pm and said he will sit there until someone comes and looks at the towels. The general manager came, who was in his office. He was appalled. I think it was fake since after reading the reviews on the resort, that is what everyone is complaining about is the uncleanliness. So no surprise. I would NEVER go back.
The pool is so small, it says on the sign that the maximum capacity is 24 in the pool. That can show you how small the pool is.

otherwise the resort was very family oriented which we liked. The staff Was friendly and helpful . I think for families that get the one room ... it would be a lot of fun. The Rum Runner cafe/bar was a great place to eat breakfast.

I paid extra for the queen suite ocean view - generally when you pay more you expect the better view - this was not the case. The queen suites are over an addition to the hotel ... I Tried to change rooms but they did not have anything better ? Moving to a higher floor would have been nice ...we were looking right over the building roof which generated a lot of heat and not the view we expected .... I have paid this much for a nice hotel in Vienna ...

Many problems with the wi-fi. My computer security does not allow me to use an unsecured connection, which is the default type for this place. Poor housekeeping, even after complaining to front desk (who did nothing). Sometimes they took towels, sometimes they didn't; sometimes they left coffee for the coffeemaker, sometimes not. I couldn't find the "complementary beach chairs" until the last afternoon. I thought that they were chairs that you could bring out to the beach. Instead, it turned out that they were stationary chairs at the edge of the property that did not include an umbrella ($15/day extra). Also, breakfast vouchers did not include tax or gratuity, so breakfast was not really "free", though it was inexpensive and pretty good. When I checked out, the fellow at the desk did not ask me if I had enjoyed my stay. It seemed pretty clear that he did not care...many of the employees seemed to have a bad attitude. Finally, the room air conditioner was noisy - this was a mixed curse and blessing. When it was on, I could not hear the street noise. But the ambient noise level was generally high - either from the a/c or the street noise from Gulf Blvd. All in all, I did not find it to be a very relaxing stay.
