"Staff works very hard at this property, they are very accommodating."

"Awesome beach area!"

"We stayed in the Gulf view villa and it was perfect. We walked right out onto the beach. "

"Hotel is not too bad. Had issues with my lights that they fixed but went out again. They gave us new towels everyday and clean sheets. Staff is really nice. Pool was nice with a great view. Shower pressure pretty low but temperature of water no problem. Just a normal beach hotel for a decent price. "

"We had a wonderful time and staff was great. There are still updates that can be updated a little. Location was amazing with restaurants and beach. Great music at the hotel bar which faced the beach. It allowed us to just chill, which was so amazing. Big plus with the bicycles that we were able to use."

"The Opal Sol was absolutely beautiful. My best friend and I stayed at the Opal Sands last year and decided to stay at the Sol this year. The location is perfect and in close/walking distance to local bars, restaurants and shops. The resort is exceptionally clean, rooms are beautiful, beds are extremely comfortable and the views are spectacular. We found that the Sol lacked in the room service area. We ordered a pot of coffee each morning as the Keurig coffee was blah. The coffee was delivered promptly, but on two occasions without cups and by the time the cups were delivered, the coffee was cold. Last year when we stayed at the Sands, we LOVED the Amaretto French Toast and we were disappointed that it wasn’t on the menu at the restaurant “Toast” at the Sol. It was still on the menu at the “Sea Guini” at the Sands, but we were unable to order it through room service so we had to walk over to pick it up. Being that the buildings are attached, it would be great if it was possible to order room service from restaurants from both hotels. This year, we decided not to pack toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash) because the full bottle offerings in the shower at the Sands were awesome! We were disappointed when we checked into the Sol and only tiny bottles were available. They weren’t the same quality at all and we had to go to the local Walgreens to buy full bottles which we ended up leaving at the resort because we didn’t want to check bags at the airport. "

"Location excellent, amenities were good. Hotel room could use a refresh"
