"This my husband and I favorite number 1 getaway spot in Jacksonville. The facility is always clean, spotless, staff very friendly and they make you feel welcome. Great parking. Good breakfast. "

"Upon checkin (approximately 1 hour after 4:00 pm), we had to wait nearly 45 min outside our room as the maids finished cleaning the room (we were told previously that the room was ready). The cleanliness was subpar, with hairs everywhere (especially in the bathroom). The pool wasn’t very clean either. The wait to use the elevators (approximately 5 minutes each time, I timed it) was the worst I’ve experienced at any hotel. After we checked out, Margaritaville charged one of my cards twice for the room and another of my cards for the room and valet service, which necessitated multiple phone calls to straighten out. For the money charged, this was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had. "

"Room was clean & the ocean front porch balcony was great. "

"Comfortable but could hear the activity from the room next door ie conversations and the TV"

"Great little hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Nothing is overpriced, great location."

"No food options except room service, hotel under construction. Very disruptive but at least they had coffee in the morning and a glass of wine at 3. No real place to enjoy the wine as entire bottom half of hotel under construction. Will be very nice when fished but they have a long way to go. "

"The beach view from our villa was mostly obstructed. The listing showed a balcony, but our room was on the ground floor with a patio that had no lighting, making it unusable at night. The photos used for booking are misleading and do not accurately represent what you get. The resort includes multiple buildings with different types of villas, a hotel, and smaller units, but this is not clearly explained during booking—so you don’t really know which accommodations you’re reserving. There was no kitchen; however, we booked a double queen room (not a suite), so that part was acceptable. That said, the villa itself needs a thorough cleaning and updating. The common areas and building exterior also show a lack of maintenance and upkeep. Overall, the room did not feel worth the price we paid. That said, the resort itself has a lot to offer—we enjoyed the amenities, shops, dining options, views, pool, beach, and natural surroundings, especially riding around in the golf cart we rented. The hotel next to the villas was a highlight, with brunch, live music in the evenings, a large pool, great views, and a boardwalk to the beach. Access to these hotel amenities for villa guests was a definite plus."

"Felt like I walked onto a spa when I walked into my detached house."

"Tacky room for the price."
