location

the pool wasn’t there and you couldn’t just walk out to the water

I liked that it was right on the beach. The sunrises were spectacular! The pool was well kept and the room was comfortable. It not very close to quality restaurants, but I am accustomed to 10-15 minute drives to eat when I am at the beach. This is a small, budget-style building that has had upgrades to make it more luxurious.

The food and drink was too expensive. One BLT/fries, daiquiri, and Carina was $50. I did not like that they charged for parking ($13.85 per night). The lot is the same set up as any budget hotel. As far as I can tell, there is no upgrade in service to warrant charging the nightly fee. The room price is fair for the hotel and for the patron. Do you need to roll in the extra charge for parking too? The restaurant has the misfortune to be situated in the main thoroughfare to get out to the pool and beach. Lots of traffic through the restaurant, which has to be bad on the dining experience.

I love Marriott hotels and this one joined my list as one of my favorites. The property was very clean and the bed was super comfortable as Marriott beds always are. The front desk staff was very kind and helpful and they granted my wish of a floor high up. The oceanfront views from the 7th floor were spectacular and we enjoyed relaxing on the balcony. I fell in love with the shower as well.

When I first read the reviews before my stay I kept reading that the elevators were small and slow and that parking was bad due to not enough and small parking spots. I do agree that the elevators are small and a tad slow, but nothing that ruined our stay. Parking was fine for us but it could be because the hotel wasn’t overly busy when we stayed. The pool wasn’t heated, but I still enjoyed the pool ambiance. Our toilet did make a loud sound when flushed but not enough to make us want to leave. In fact we can’t wait to go back. We live in St Augustine so we aren’t far from the hotel.

How close we were to the ocean.

Having to pay to park in the hotel’s parking lot. That is ridiculous.

This hotel was very clean inside and outside, my room was very spacious and when I tell you clean, it was clean, I balcony was on the side of the hotel, but still had a nice view of the ocean along with a breeze.

The apperance of the hotel on the outside and inside, my room spacious of it, the view from my room of the ocean, decent gym, wish it was bigger with more equipment, because I like working out and loved this hotel sits right on the beach, where I went running and walking in the morning.

Very friendly front desk staff, professional looking and acting, love to see a uniform, very clean, beautiful pool

Too much money for oceanfront $80 extra a night is insane, and charging for parking, WHY ????? And the small fridges, can’t fit much

I loved the stay, Nest time I will get Direct Oceanfront...

I loved everything but I needed direct oceanfront When I first came, I had to change the entire bed because it had not been changed, that's okay, i made it up myself with nice clean sheets that I knew were clean. staff very understanding.

Loved everything about the hotel excluding the elevators. Rooms were spacious and clean, staff were extremely polite. I was obsessed with the shower in the room! The beach access is currently closed but the walk to the beach is super short, I walked there every day, and the balcony was plus! Loved it.

Elevators are soo small and so are the carts for the luggage.

Beautiful, well maintained, staff friendly and great location.

No beach or pool access during our stay, they did mentioned on a message when we booked , but we decided to book anyways as we were not planing to go to the pool .Hurricanes can be very damaging, glad the hotel was able to continue its business and provide a beautiful environment. Hope to come back again and enjoy the new pool.

The staff were great, was greeted within distance all the time. Housekeeping was on top of it every morning. Pool was excellent and the beach was wonderful and clean. Great location, Aunt Catfish not too far away just a few minutes.

Halfway into our stay a bus load of teenagers crashed our vacation. At times especially at night were very rowdy and making a lot of noise. The on-site restaurant was ok but expected better from a Marriott, food was not that great. They charge for parking $10/day plus $250 hold refundable deposit at check-in which we thought was ridiculous.
