    family-friendly paradise
    inviting pools
    delightful breakfast
    overpriced beach chairs
    tiny parking spots

    Staying at The Island was like diving into a family-friendly paradise! The pools were so inviting that my kids had us splashing around for hours—seriously, if there was an Olympic event for pool lounging, we’d be gold medalists! Breakfast was delightful with options that made my taste buds dance, and the beach was literally a stone's throw away from our room, making every sunrise a spectacle.

    The beach access was fantastic, making it easy to enjoy the sun and surf. The pool area was a highlight, offering fun and relaxation. However, the noisy surroundings and limited dining options could use improvement. Overall, a suitable option for families looking for a beachfront getaway, but some aspects may not meet everyone's expectations.

    grotto pool
    swim-up bar
    beach access
    parking fees
    construction noise

    The Island Resort has the kind of pools that make you feel like a water-loving dolphin! The grotto pool was a highlight, complete with a swim-up bar where the bartender was quicker than a magician pulling bunnies out of a hat. Plus, the beach access was just a hop, skip, and jump away—perfect for sporadic beach wanderings.

    crowded area
    closed amenities
    inconsistent service

    The beach access was fantastic, making it easy to enjoy the sun. The staff, especially at the front desk, were friendly and helpful. some amenities were unexpectedly closed during my stay, and I found the pool area a bit crowded. This location is great for families looking for a fun beach getaway but be prepared for some inconsistencies.

    would definitely come back there

    The room was cozy with air conditioning, a balcony, and a microwave. I loved having a flat-screen TV and coffee maker. The beach access was super close, and the pool area was inviting. The breakfast was buffet style, featuring homemade muffins. Friendly staff made the experience even better.
