8.6/10 Excellent! (288 reviews)
Stay at Parker Beach Lodge was overall average. The lodge has been modernized and the finished look nice, the upkeep to the rooms is lacking. Our room specifically was quite dirty, even for a hotel room- the bathroom being the dirtiest. The shower was quickly cleaned, leaving lots of obvious signs of prior use and there was liquid splashes of various colours all over the walls. The shower wouldn’t drain upon first use and continued several times over our stay. The room had a very strong musty old odour that hit you upon entering and came home on all of our belongings. Strangely there were also mini fridges unplugged and outside most of the rooms. Didn’t look the nicest and hazard. Also pool umbrellas laying by stairs up to our room, also a tripping hazard in the dark. Staff seemed nice enough. Convenient location and less than one min walk to a beautiful beach. Would likely stay somewhere else next time.
