Awesome Stay
Our hotel stay was absolutely fantastic! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the entire property was clean and well-kept. We especially loved the pool area—it was relaxing and perfect for unwinding. The pier was another highlight; we spent a lot of time there enjoying the views and fishing. Everything exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great getaway!

Very satisfied
Thoroughly enjoyed the Waterside. The staff was very attentive and efficient. Property was very clean. The room was neat and comfortable. Private balcony overlooking the bay was a great place to enjoy the sunrise and sunset. Daily free breakfast was limited to waffles, scrambled eggs, Canadian bacon, biscuits. They also had coffee, orange juice, yogurt, and bottled water. Nice long private pier I would not hesitate to visit again.
