Convenient to golf courses which was why we were there. Easy and free parking. Large rooms, tiny balcony. Beds comfortable, room cleaned and towels replaced daily. I like having glass or ceramic rather than plastic or paper cups but they did give us wine glasses from the front bar. Lots of kids but found the adult pool and hot tub one evening. Didn’t eat there so can’t comment but found excellent restaurants nearby. Generally good but not as luxurious as we had expected for the money.

Sonesta was very nice. Super close to the beach and nicely decorated. Cons: -online advertised me having a $44.40 (resort fee $37, destination fee $3, and fees $4.40)charged in person fee well the resort rounded it up to $50 with no real reason. -Walls thinner than their 1ply toilet paper, you will hear everything your neighbors do. Kept us up all night because kids were next door screaming on the balcony. With lack of sleep and a big drive ahead of us resort refused to give us an additional hour for check out. -Parking required you to have a temporary placard in your car….they literally know how many spaces they have and they still managed to have no parking for all paying guest. Front desk allows you to park in Valet spots if lot is full tho.

Carli was an amazing staff member on this property but aside from her do not expect any southern hospitality from staff. We arrived when it was light out and everything was closed including the pool. I was hungry my entire stay. There are not 5 restaurants on this resort, no room service, not even a vending machine. I inquired at the front desk about a vending machine since there was no food available on the property and no easy access to food. The front desk informed me they had some snacks behind the counter. We went down to grab a couple of bags of mini goldfish crackers and he proceeded to say “these aren’t free”! Of course they aren’t! Why would a cracker be included in a “resort fee” when there’s zero food available and it’s still light outside. Very dirty bathrooms and we had to switch rooms due to long clumps of hair in shower to be moved to a room with more clumps of hair in the shower. Nice access to a beautiful beach and the attempt at kids activities is nice but could use some better organization. Activities are posted for kids at certain times. S’mores at the fire pit was posted for 8pm and when we went down at 8:21 it was over. The prices of the food and drinks available during the day are higher than prices of a real luxury resort which this is not. We enjoyed our time but spent an absurd amount of money (vacationing from Boston in Hawaii would have been cheaper) did not get what we were told we would on the site. Not worth it for the prices and no hospitality.
