Booked a one bedroom "island residence". Checked in early which was no problem. The place is really just an old condo complex. Had a room on the 2nd floor. Was very surprised upon entering the condo how out of date and old the furnishings were (although here were new appliances in the kitchen). I figured this being called a 4... more

This hotel is advertised as a resort, but is actually condos that are owned personally and rented. Our 2 bedroom island residence ended up smelling of moth balls and dust and featured plastic-coated furniture and stained appliances. The resort's wireless internet was down and water was non-drinkable. Management told us the resort was "full" (though there were no cars in... more

Sundial Beach & Golf Resort is a good place to stay. The view is great but there are some problems. One problem is if you don't book through Sundial Resort you can't swim at the main pool,eat at the restarurant, rent their bikes, or use their pool towels. Other than a few problems this resort is clean and a nice... more

I stayed at the Sundial this past w/e. I booked a one bedroom room from the hotels website as they were offering a promotion (if you stay 2 nites you get $50 resort credit and a room upgrade). Mind you the hotels website represents this hotel as "luxury"! Upon arrival to my unit i quickly found out I got a... more

Ok after reading all the bad reviews, I was VERY apprehensive about this resort. Do not believe these reviews. We had an awesome time.We just returned from this vacation and had to post this review! The staff was plentiful and always smiled and said hello when passing by. The food at the 2 restaurants were the best on the entire... more

Just got back from Sundial. At first, disappointed in aging look of buildings and decor of 2 BR condo. But it had lots of space and lovely view of gulf. Front desk staff nice and friendly, but small pools, long walk to main pool, no drinks or service at small pool near unit. Beach is nice but faces south, so... more

My family stayed in a 2 bedroom unit with an ocean view in July and since it was "off" season the rates were decent. Our room was amazing. I get the feeling that as owned condos it might be hit or miss depending on the unit you get but I was very happy with mine. The balcony was HUGE, screened... more

We booked a room for 4 back in May 08. I asked if there were beach chairs and umbrellas as my mom cant take the sun. I was told that they were free. When we arrived there was a sign saying that they now charge $10 per umbrella! I asked at the front desk to waive the fee. I was... more

We stayed at this resort for a family reunion of 20 people, and we booked 5 different accommodations. We each had the two bedroom/two bath full kitchen units but a couple of us had the Grand Gulf View and the rest of us had the Garden View. Each unit is decorated differently (they are individually owned) and were all maintained... more

This place is great for young families! We have 4 children ages 4-8 and we felt the activities, accommodations and service were fine. Yes, the place could use some updating (lots of mirrored walls in the room), but do the kids really care about that?! We put the kids in the camp for the day (9-1) and went to lunch... more
