Going back to Hotel Coral Reef

We had the best time and will stay there again. Our room was very clean. We enjoyed the banana bread that yhe managers mother made every day. I emjoyed the sunrise every morning from our lanai. Nice to have a safe in the room, too. Loved the walking trail along the beachfront

Great location but some quirks

Unbeatable location on the ocean with little beach and nice grounds. Good price for location. However, our room wasn’t cleaned when we arrived and we had to wait 2.5 hours for that. We did get a $50 credit for this inconvenience. Our room was comfortable but somewhat dated. Be aware that windows don’t open in rooms so there’s no enjoying the ocean air; you have to use the A/C. Beds were comfy and we slept well but were glad we only stayed 1 night.

The location is great being right by the water, the mini fridge is a bit small, double sinks don't leave much room for toiletries. The bathtub was older and a bit high getting in and out of. Carpet in the room was old. Overall it was a good place that could use a few updates.

The hotel sits steps from the ocean. If you get the ocean view you can sit on the terrace and watch the sun rise. Beautiful! You’re close to restaurants and a wonderful walking path. Bed is large though sheets though clean were worn. Bathroom was spacious and clean. Room was shabby in spots. Some of the staff were friendly and on top of things. The woman who checked me in and was behind the desk was welcoming and helpful. You can borrow beach chairs and umbrellas to take to any of the wonderful spots on the island. There was a problem with someone smoking cigarettes and weed near my room that she tried to solve though she didn’t investigate. She also didn’t offer to change my room. I had a short stay so I didn’t ask to change. The guy who was also in the office was surly and very unhelpful. Just be warned that the hotel is near 3 weed stores so it’s prevalent! Turns out it was people in the room below mine who were partying big time. It was New Years so maybe it was to be expected! Mixed bag of a stay.

Although we stayed only one night, we had a great experience! The staff was very welcoming and went over and above to make sure we were taken care of. They even had bicycles to use for the afternoon! The view was amazing and we were close to shopping and dining.
