9/10 Wonderful! (366 reviews)

Very good decoration that gives you the feeling of tropics. Stuffs are nice, and location is great (walking distance to Coronado beach and piers)

8.4/10 Very Good! (1,829 reviews)

This property is great for kids. It's a large area for kids to spread out and explore. there are two restaurants on the property that are good but one requires reservations and has very limited days and hours of operation. The barefoot bar closes by 9 pm. The property is great but there is nothing near by that you could walk to. The rooms are one story bungalows built many decades ago. The A/C does not have a good filtration system. This was causing issues with my wife's asthma. The biggest negative is the $40 a night hidden fee / scam. This fee is not listed in the price. Each bungalow comes with a dedicated and marked parking spot so why would you have to pay an extra parking fee. it's a shameful hidden fee scam that leaves you with a negative overall impression of the property.
