Large beautiful rooms with view of the Gulf. Right on the beach!
Parking is usually full.

This is a great place to stay on the beach. A short drive from the city and sights. The condo is beautifully furnished. If you can, reserve a beach front room. The infinity pool and exercise facility is top notch.

They paid attention to our dissatisfaction with the loud music being piped into the pool area and turned down the volume.
Many of the balconies overlooked a parking lot - and were extremely tiny - 2 people couldn't sit there.

Initially the room we were assigned had an extremely tiny balcony which mostly overlooked a parking lot with a limited view of the beach. However, when we asked if we could be moved, the staff found a more appropriate, comfortable condo - at the same price.

The price of the room and I felt safe for my wife and I.
The room was not ready and the door lock did not work.

The hotel was very nice and clean and friendly.

Right on the beach.
No tennis courts or game equipment.

Beautiful quiet spot in the off season with a beautiful beach.

Excellent location.
Balcony was too small.

This is an excellent value for a vacation on the beach, which is only step away from your room. There is no housekeeping service during your stay, and the balconies in the economy rooms are extremely small, but have everything you need, and spectacular views. The rooms and facilities are very clean and modern.

Hotel is on the beach.
A lot of "to do" items before we left like take-out garbage or they will charge you.

The hotel wasn't too horrible, it was more like the kind of people at the hotel. I didn't find it family friendly for that reason, and for the price it was certainly not worth it.

On the beach and beautiful views.
No breakfast.

We had a wonderful time at Escapes. The views are great, and it is right on the beach! No need to risk your life running across Seawall Blvd. The rooms are like small apartments and were nicely decorated. We will definitely return and recommend this place.

Excellent location.
Sand in pool. Beach rinse station inoperative.

Nice, clean unit. Excellent location. Beach was raked once while we were there but the seaweed was so sparse it wasn't really needed. The pool could've been cleaner.

The view from the balcony was great.
The pool was crowded and not managed.

You have to ensure you get the right room to have a balcony. Some of the rooms had small cramped areas. You also need to be in the east wing on the ocean end to have a view at all. Otherwise, it was a great experience.
