Mostly wonderful stay

The location, cleanliness, and service was all wonderful. The bed was pretty comfy. Being able to walk across the street to the private beach was amazing, and the main reason I booked this hotel. The only bummers were: 1) The dish TV Guide was so incorrect you had no idea what was playing on any channel, you just had to scroll through every individual channel (like the old days). TV wasn't the focus of our trip so this was a smallish problem, but it made relaxing in the room a little less nice. 2) The walls were paper thin and I'm a light sleeper. The folks next to us in 206 had their TV at a perfectly reasonable volume but the walls were so thin I could hear every song and word. Also the people on the other side of us or above us were talking and if we didn't have a noise machine on, I probably would have heard their conversation.

Absolutely incredible stay. The staff could not have been nicer. Beautiful room with comfortable beds. Private beach is stunning and a perfect addition to your stay. I doubt we will ever stay anywhere else on the island and we have tried many other places over the years. A+++

We loved the convenience of being across the street from the beach & chairs, umbrellas, beach towels were included.The breakfast was great. It is grab and go so don't expect full breakfast menu but we enjoyed ours every morning.We didn't have to fix it and it was included!There were bagels, french toast, waffles, different pastries, granola and protein bars, 3 types of juice, hard boiled eggs. The pool was amazing but it closed at 8 pm. I read it was due to turtle season and being a law.We had a murphy bed and it was very comfy. They will clean your room every day if you want it. We are conservative at home and the same when away so we just put the do not disturb sign out and just changed our towels out with the office staff, which on that note. Noah and the WHOLE office team are wonderful. Actually every single person we encountered we so kind and seemed to really want us to enjoy our stay, the cleaning staff and maintenance included. So very friendly!The only thing that might be trouble for some is that only 1 vehicle is allowed so if you are meeting someone from a different direction/not riding with you.I'm not sure what you do.I'm sure there is a solution but since there was just the 2 of us we didn't ask.Thank you Silver Surf and we will definitely be back!Oh and ps there is a trolley stop right out front that takes you all over the island so no need to start your car back up or rent a golf cart.Do yourself a favor and take the pontoon ferry to Bradenton $6 roundtrip
