The only things I can complain about was the pool, my backyard pool if better, and the parking. There was zero underground parking at night. and a long haul from above ground.

Terrible management!
We booked a 1-BR oceanfront unit weeks in advance, but when it came time to check in at 4 pm they did not have any such units available and tried to put us in a 2-BR oceanfront unit that was in the middle of lanai construction instead. This construction not only blocked half the view but meant workers would be there all day. We refused to accept the unit and asked to speak to a manager, but all managers had left for the day even though it was check-in time. They finally gave us a lower category unit 2 hours later and said they would give us a price credit the next day, but one week later they have yet to process the credit. This is the worst hotel experience I've had in many years of active traveling.

Great location, this particular property is lacking in the pool and restaurant bar amenities. However, many nearby options for food and drinks within a short walk. Black rock is also with public beach access and great snorkeling!

Our room was very nice and updated. One negative would be the shower desperately needs grab bars or at least a non slip bath mat. Very difficult to get in and out of tall bathtub. It’s a little noisy near the Whaler shopping area, but not enough to rate lower than a 5*.

The condo was very nice but the construction above us blocked the view from the balcony.
Also the pool was small and too many people packed around it to sit.

The property was amazing with beautiful views of the ocean. The walking path along the beach was great. The only complaint would be that we had to call maintenance to fix the tv and the oven. Saved a ton of money being able to fix our own food.
