OK for a Package hotel

Visited recently for 5 days. Room and facility are a bit run down, site itself is not in walking distance of anything interesting. Housekeeping overworked. Pretty beach, surly watersports staff. Some nice pool areas, particularly the adult pool. Wouldn't return.More

We have the ocean front rooms which have interconnecting doors Though I am sure some of the other room also do. The hotel will set the room up as a twin or double. Just request. They are so helpful.
