Absolutely amazing little trip. The convenience of breakfast/lunch/dinner right at the Lodge made it a stress free little getaway. Beach was clean and easily accessible. A little pricey but worth every penny. Will definitely stay here again.

This property is stunning with a pristine beach and a quiet atmosphere. Dining at The Perch was amazing and we loved grabbing a quick bite or beverage at the Dragonfly pool bar. We will definitely be returning.

Parking is so far away!! You are charged daily to park at this hotel. Our hotel room was on the ground floor and at the very end. It was such a long walk. The carpet in the hallway smelled terrible and appeared stained. So much noise at night. We went during peak season and it was $500 a night for a basic hotel room with no microwave or toaster. We booked here for a tournament at Gulf State Park Pavilion thinking it would be within walking distance with our awning, chairs etc and it was not. So on top of paying to park at the hotel we also had to pay to park at the gulf state park pavilion. Save your money and stay elsewhere on the beach.

Beautiful property close enough to the strip by a short ride, but far enough away to be quiet and feel private. Walking distance to nature trails. Breakfast room service is wonderful! The prices seemed on the high side, but portions are well worth the price. I was able to get two meals out of one order. Looking forward to our next trip!

Everyone was awesome except for Rodney’s attitude upon arrival. He was cranky and was rude to my kids and wife while I parked the car. Everyone else was amazing and the place was great as always! Been going there every year since 2020.

Our first room had black mold around the tops of the ceiling. We had a maintenance staff come look and he also agreed that it was mold. After we were moved to another room they changed the sheets several times to try and get clean bedding. We still ended up with dirty sheets and the explanation of they have a new company washing sheets and it hasn’t been the best experience. I would not stay here again.

Beware Expedia’s room pictures & description … this was for a ‘Gulf Front’ Hearing room. This room was out on the far end of the building in the green organic section of the property so no sand except in the distance. the view of the ocean was also quite distant. Expedia, however, pulled 3 of the property’s stock photos of a 2-queen bed gulf front view into this listing, 1 of which is clearly on a higher level overlooking the beach access bridge, ocean, & beach. Very misleading, as the 1st floor pics aren’t very obvious. This room however was of exceptional quality since it hasn’t been booked often. We canceled & rebooked directly w/hotel to get a room w/better view. That room was well-worn w/uncomfortable beds in comparison. Swapped room quality for a better view. 1st floor rooms also have 12ish foot ceilings, levels 2-4 have standard ceilings. Appears as tho level 5 - highest level - may have high ceilings as well. Also hotel employees treated me completely differently when booked directly. They treat guests w/3rd party bookings like sub-par guests. The front desk employee even went as far as to say she thinks it should be against the law for Expedia to use the hotel’s stock photos for their listings!😳 In summary view Expedia w/a very critical eye, & expect to received less respectful treatment than guests that booked directly w/the hotel :/.
