Underwhelming
For such a highly rated resort, even recently as Readers’ Choice in Conde Nast, it was completely underwhelming.
The buildings are old and tired, the beachfront quite short, and service fell short, and food was just meh.
My room was in need of renovation, especially the bathroom. And the screened-in porch on the balcony was so dirty and bug-filled that sitting outside was not pleasant. As well, the roosters in the vicinity start crowing at 230 am so count on sleep.
With the expensive resort fees and taxes, the most basic room is well over $550/night.
It simply wasn’t worth it.

The resort was beautiful, clean, and well managed. We had a beautiful room with stylish furniture. Fun things to do at the resort (fish, swim, pitch and putt golf), within walking distance to other fun restaurants and stores.

Property well kept, Atlantic Edge Restaurant was very nice; food good. Service was good .
The heated pool was only 77 degrees and was chilly; few people were in the water, mostly younger children. The towels at pool were thin and thread bare.
