"Hallway carpet needs replacing. Had a bit of an odor. Overall our fav place to stay on island, though."
The King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort
The King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort"Loved the heated pool. Staff at hotel and restaurant were top notch. Food at Echo was delicious. The walk to beach was a little odd, not direct, but I suppose you can't help the dunes/tidal pools. The rooms are nice. However they did not have coffee pots. Staff said it was because of remodeling which seems silly. It was too inconvenient to get to lobby where it was available for sale."
"The room was clean and comfortable"

"When I say the staff is poor I am referring to the Manager Nancy who is unprofessional and misled us by falsifying information. During our stay, our room was dirty upon arriving, floor dusty, bugs & spider webs in corners, 2 towels for 4 people, no blanket or sheets for the sofa bed. They were provided upon request. Now, the noise is unreal. You can hear everything outside, every conversation, every foot step, & bag rolling by. They had college kids staying that were up all night of our stay...
Village Inn and Pub - Adults Only
Village Inn and Pub - Adults Only"Evelyn was a gracious hostess at the Village Inn & Pub. She made us feel welcome and we had a lovely stay there. Our room was clean, well appointed and private. We had a cozy balcony overlooking the pool and garden. There was a lovely dressing area/work space, a fridge, coffee maker, and cocktails. It was a great location with walking access to shops, restaurants, park, and pier. We would stay here again."
"Very private and convenient."
