The problems: the website does not represent the reality at all, our dresser drawers wouldn't stay closed, balcony door was very difficult to lock and was unlocked upon arrival, the handle of the exterior door came off and we had to postpone our vacation activities so it could be replaced, the free breakfast was inedible, the room phone had no signal, the wifi didn't work, the manager was extremely rude and refused to work with us. The details: I booked this hotel for 3 nights but only stayed one. My friends and I were disappointed when we walked in the door but decided to make the best of it. Everything looked and smelled very old- not at all like the pictures on their website. The first thing we noticed was that the dresser drawers were open. We closed them and they fell open again. We put clothes in them thinking the weight would help. They rolled open again so we had to just leave them that way. The balcony sliding glass door was unlocked when we got there. I tried to lock it and couldn't get it. It took two of us to force the door shut enough to get it to finally lock. I had minimal service on my phone so i tried the wifi. It didn't work. I was going to call the front desk for help but the room phone didn't even work. I was able to call on my phone and the front desk person said that alot of people have a difficult time getting the wifi to work but he didn't know why. We left the room to explore the island then returned to go to sleep. We had a busy day planned the next morning. We had already found out that the exterior door was hard to shut and needed some extra force. But as we were closing the door on our exit to spend our first full day in padre, the door handle came off. I had to borrow a phone to call the front. They said they'd send maintenance. I asked for a room change. That request was completely ignored. Now our plans were delayed. My friends check out the gym while I wait in the room. The 3 men (who didn't speak any English) had to replace the whole assembly (front and back handles). My friends went to get our continental breakfast. They wouldn't allow them to bring in their water bottles from their workout. They don't allow food to be taken out of the restaurant. The pancakes were rubbery and the yogurt was warm and runny. The gym equipment was so dirty that you could see the discoloration. The restroom in the gym was locked with no one in it. So we decided to change hotels. We go to checkout and pay. The guy says I have to pay for all 3 nights. I ask to speak to manager. He has to call her. I get on the phone and tell her all of the reasons why we are leaving. Her response was that she personally inspected the room before we arrived and everything was fine. They always leave the balcony doors unlocked for their guests. They fixed the exterior door handle. And a lot of hotels don't allow you to take food out of the restaurant. I told her I would dispute t the charges and she rudely said to

Very good resort hotel, beautiful and convenient. The hotel is located on the south side of Nampa Island. Except for the RV campground in the southernmost park, there are no taller buildings. If it's not winter, the swimming pool would be nice. There is a boardwalk to the beach behind the hotel. The high-rise room facing south can see the starship base and launch tower. You can imagine how popular this room would be when there is a starship launching. At night, the lights of the Starship Base Assembly Factory and the strobe lights on the launch pad can also be seen on the balcony. This is a great housing option for starship enthusiasts.

Beautiful landscape with tons of palm trees at this resort. Plenty of parking space. Our room had very comfortable beds and a great view of the beach. The Windjammer’s Beachfront Cafe had a great breakfast buffet with excellent service and a beautiful view overlooking the pools and ocean. The Coffee Hut was convenient and served delicious Starbucks coffee.☕️ The Quarter Deck Lounge had excellent entertainment and bar service. I really enjoyed Comedy Show and live band/ DJ this past weekend. Loved that the band played a variety of music. Overall, I highly recommend this resort.

The staff members were polite, respectful and friendly, the hotel has clean rooms and a convenient location
