I had a wonderful stay at this resort! The views of the water and Mt. Hood were stunning, especially from the rooftop lounge where I enjoyed the sunset. The staff was mostly friendly and very helpful, but I noticed some were less trained than others. Overall, it was a great place to relax, though I wished for more consistent service. The facilities were nice, and my family especially enjoyed the spacious layout of our room and the nearby dining options.

7.6/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was fantastic, providing easy access to local attractions and the beach, the room I received did not meet my expectations, especially since I was promised a Bay View Room upon booking. The service was helpful, and the space in the suite was quite generous, but the overall condition of the facilities felt outdated. Given the rate we paid, I expected more value for the amenities provided.

Rooms

6.0

The room was spacious with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, but it had a view of the parking lot rather than the Bay as promised. It felt a bit worn, with outdated furniture and some missing kitchen items.
