Amoret

Disliked: Staff & service
Front desk check was a half hour ordeal with a rude clerk, Nik. There was a fire alarm at 10:30pm one night set off by an employee "playing" with a new alarm system and the power went off the next night so no TV, A/C, lights. And they offered to take off the $40 resort fee, period with they little apology. The staff is not well trained.

Beautiful property that was close to the beach. My wife and I stayed 2 nights here with our 2 dogs. We took our dogs to the beach both days and enjoyed walking along it. The beach there is clean and not very crowded. This is a resort that we would like to come back and enjoy on our own, without our dogs. We didn’t get to experience much of the resort since we had our dogs.

We liked the property because it was along the beach. Every morning and evening we walked the beach. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Any questions we asked they were eager to answer our questions. We had breakfast at the buffet which was very good. We found the hotel to be very clean.
