Location is perfect and staff was amazing! Hoping to visit again soon.
Single mom with 2 kiddos- we had the best time! Maggie and all of the staff we encountered (especially the restaurant servers and bartenders) were helpful and welcoming. We cannot wait to return!!!
We had an enjoyable stay! Our hotel room was great as we had a Gulf view. The hotel restaurant food was absolutely delicious and the entire hotel staff was amazing. I plan to return to the Hilton Gardens Inn. Thank you for an excellent stay!!
Our family loved our stay at this location! Check in was a breeze, our room wasn’t ready but we were welcome to store our luggage and enjoy the property while we waited. Our keys were brought to us while we had a late lunch. Food was amazing. We spent plenty of time in the pools. We were welcome to enjoy the pool at the hotel next door as well! Room was large, hotel was quiet.
Beach view was amazing! Staff were great and helpful! Room was clean & beds were comfortable! Shower could of had better water pressure but that is my only complaint. Otherwise, the hotel had everything there on site. The pizza in the restaurant was very tasty! I liked having an indoor and an outdoor pool and the ping pong table in the pool room. They also had outdoor jenga and connect four for the kids to play. There is beach access on site as well so we didn't need to leave much. Would definitely come back and stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay. The view was beautiful, staff were friendly and food was great. We loved the pool area very relaxing. Favorite part was how close we were to the beach and its beauty !
Great stay: staff was excellent, room was great with a nice ocean view. Property clean. The lady who checked us in was great (forgot her name sorry) nice location right on the beach made for easy access.
