Property has been nicely refurbished. We enjoyed our stay. Only problem was our room didn’t get serviced every day ({even though they told us we would have daily service) and we had to call a couple of times to get fresh towels, trash taken out and beds made. We stayed there 6 days. But we would definitely stay there again. Very close to beach and walkable to St Armand’s Circle

Highly recommended this gem of a property. Beautiful modern art deco circus theme decor with historical photography. This Opal luxury is brand new. The front reception staff and restaurant staff were so helpful and friendly. They really care about sustainability and provide water bottle fill up stations on every floor to reduce plastic. Great access to the beach and walkable in 5 minutes to Armand Circle full of boutiques, bars and restaurants. There is a free shuttle that takes you to the sister Lido Beach resort if you want a private beach or to go downtown. I loved that included in my daily resort fee I had parking on site. Highly recommend this little slice of paradise.

Very comfortable and spacious. The amenities were nice and the room was updated. The staff was friendly and helpful. In room dining was still figuring out it's flow since the hotel opened 8 weeks ago. We had a view of Lido Beach and loved having balcony access both from our room and the seating area. Walking distance from St Armand's!
