My family thoroughly enjoyed our 5 day stay here! From our room being ready early after our long drive to any request being responded to expeditiously by all staff, I was very impressed and satisfied with the Grand Atlantic. Condo was clean, staff was friendly and helpful and all the amenities located onsite were as described. Having the onsite restaurant Scooby's was such a benefit, all the food was great! We look forward to staying here again next year! Thanks for making our family vacation a comfortable one.

It looked like a premium hotel before booking, and it ended up being good just not exactly what was expected.

Great stay/bring beach chairs
We had a short but lovely time. As we walked back from beach we found the pools and hot tub, but didn't have time to jump in. Only bad surprise was we were told we wold have to rent the chairs and umbrellas that were on the beach for $50 for the day. We only had about 90 minutes to spend so we sat on a towel. We thought the chairs were provided by the hotel. But still enjoyed our time at the beach.

Weekend get away
The beds were comfortable sheets were clean. The room was old the carpet needed to be changed it was very basic served its purpose for the weekend. The pools I think we're very cloudy they needed to be maintained better. It was sand in the hot tub which I understand can happen but first thing in the morning shouldn't be there. The grounds in the back area were very pretty with lounge chairs facing the beach was a nice touch. Front desk staff was very nice. Access to the beach was very easy parking was plentiful especially for a holiday weekend.

Rating of hotel
I like the fact there was a place to get food and drinks down stairs. However the room was not up to par. They need to do renovations. The room had a funny smell and someone also pulled the fire alarm at 4 am causing everyone to evacuate.

Great resort. Only problem we had was the room was located near the fitness room. The door slammed from 6am to 11pm. We ask someone to maybe fix it but it never happened.
