I was sadly informed that this motel was sold and will be torn down in June. A small part left of…read morethe old Florida will now be a high rise. Like we really need another one. That was such disappointing news and we are hoping to pay another visit before June. The motel is located right on the beach and not far from downtown. We took the walk downtown instead of making the short drive. It was nice to enjoy the fresh cool air during this cold front we just had in March. The motel is pretty nice and clean. I requested two beds and was given one bed and a trundle bed. It wasn't much of a bed but it will due. The staff at the front desk are super friendly and hospitable. If you want coffee in the morning go up front. There was a snack and soda machine outside and a Laundry room area with a ice maker. I loved the fact that there was no key but a key pad to open up the door. Which was my last four digits of my phone number. You do get your own patio with chairs and a table to hangout on. This was a fun girls weekend and what they had to offer was perfect for us. The prices were very reasonable and I would highly recommend visiting before June 2021.

The location is excellent, but unfortunately, the property itself is outdated, poorly maintained,…read moreand in significant need of repairs and management attention. Upon arrival, we immediately noticed maintenance issues. The blinds in our unit were broken and lying on the floor, setting the tone for what became a disappointing stay. Throughout the week, there was no housekeeping service of any kind--no bed making, no fresh linens, no replacement of kitchen towels, and no general upkeep. We were expected to keep and reuse the same towels, including damp and increasingly unpleasant kitchen towels, for the duration of our stay. The towel process itself was one of the most frustrating aspects of the experience. Guests are required to turn in towels and then be issued replacements for any trip to the pool or beach. The process felt unnecessarily restrictive and, at times, demeaning. We were repeatedly instructed where to take towels, where to pick them up, and what we could and could not touch. On one occasion, when we brought towels to housekeeping during the designated day and time window, each towel was individually inspected. We were lectured about makeup stains, informed about their laundering procedures, and warned that we could be charged for anything they could not remove. This level of scrutiny felt excessive and inappropriate. In all my years of staying at hotels, resorts, and vacation rentals, I have never been threatened with replacement charges for normal wear on old, frayed towels. Another major issue was the insect problem. Staff themselves joked that there was an unusually high concentration of bugs this season. Unfortunately, the situation was far from humorous for guests. Bugs were constantly entering through poorly sealed windows and doors, crawling across the room, getting into beds, and covering personal belongings. When we asked whether the property sprayed for pests or offered any assistance, we were told they do not spray and provide no solutions. No guest should have to spend nights dealing with insects crawling on them while they sleep. Customer service was also disappointing. Several interactions with front desk staff left us feeling as though we were being scolded rather than assisted. As first-time guests, we naturally had questions about procedures and amenities, but the responses often felt condescending. Rather than helping guests navigate the property's unusual policies, staff frequently spoke to us as though we should already know the rules. The shared amenities were equally problematic. When we attempted to use the BBQ area, we discovered there were no utensils available because another unit had taken them upstairs and kept them. Despite cleaning up after ourselves, we were later told that the grill needed cleaning the following day, apparently due to another guest's use. There seemed to be little oversight or accountability regarding shared resources. Noise and safety issues further diminished the experience. One night, an apparently intoxicated underage resident caused a major disturbance on our floor from approximately 2:00 a.m. until 4:00 a.m., eventually requiring police intervention. Surprisingly, the individual returned a few days later and was openly drinking again. Despite the significant disruption to guests, no compensation or accommodation was offered for the sleepless night. The family in the neighboring unit was also extremely noisy throughout our stay. Children repeatedly bounced a hard ball against the shared wall for hours at a time, day after day, with no intervention from management. Likewise, the pool and hot tub were frequently overcrowded with unsupervised children, making it difficult for other guests to enjoy the facilities. There appeared to be little enforcement of rules or consideration for guests seeking a quieter environment. Perhaps the most unusual part of the stay was that we were given materials encouraging us to become "owners" despite the property's obvious maintenance, service, and management shortcomings. Overall, while the location is undoubtedly attractive, the combination of poor maintenance, lack of housekeeping, pest issues, inconsistent customer service, noise disturbances, and inadequate management oversight made this a disappointing experience. This property may appeal to families with young children or groups looking for a more party-oriented atmosphere, but it was not the relaxing vacation experience we expected. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again.

Been coming here for decades as a visitor - not an owner. Bottom line opinion is that Limetree…read moreResort provides a consistently excellent value. Yes, you can find fancier places with more amenities, but Limetree delivers what is important for a safe family friendly gulf beach experience. Read on to learn why...... Staff: office, maintenance and housekeeping staff were exceptional. They were always welcoming and helpful while their workspaces were totally professional - organized, neat and tidy. Facility: Rental condos were exactly as described, stocked as promised and clean. FYI - Visitors in one unit (No 120) reportedly experienced a consistent humming from electrical systems adjacent. Also, the Internet was disrupted by the storm temporarily, but electricity and air conditioning were reliably constant. Washer/dryer units are available for no charge! During our stay, Hurricane Debby passed by, leaving about 17 inches of rain in one day with very gusty winds. Through the weather was dramatic, we never felt in danger. The building felt solid. Whew! We used the community gas grills, the shared PC, bought postcards, and generally enjoyed the same experience we've had over the years. Plenty of parking is available, and the activity center was refreshed where we played ping pong and reviewd books in the lending library. Site: The beach was substantially augmented with crushed shell/sand. It held up to the storm surge like nothing ever happened. Spectacular sunsets were a treat. We saw dolphins, pelicans, gulls, lots of wading birds including a rosette spoonbill! Entertainment: We loved the Tuesday evening one woman band. Beautiful versatile voice and musician - she had the kids, and some adults, up dancing at sunset. A magical treat! Value: For a family friendly, safe, clean on-the-beach experience- it was amazing! In summary - for the experience controlled/managed by the Limetree, the overall rating is a solid 5 (best). It's what we've come to expect after many years of visits. We hope they continue for our future generations. However - there were some non-controllable factors that downgraded our visitor experience. 1) Temporarily, construction noise from a new development. Swiveling tower cranes, clanging metal, banging, truck traffic immediately adjacent to the Limetree on the north side occurs during the day. We experienced noise from about 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This was not a surprise because Limetree staff informed us of the work. Yet we were grateful to be on the south side of the facility - a little further away. 2) Other people: We were surprised to hear late night (after closing) loud pool parties on several evenings. They stopped before midnight but still it was not expected. We were also disappointed to see people pitch camp (umbrellas, chairs, etc.) between our rented cabanas and the beach - which obstructed our water view. Apparently, there is a public beach strip between Limetree property and the waterline available to anyone. Thus, Limetree could not force them to move, yet, we are used to a Limetree community of kindness - not competition. Thus, the atmosphere at times seemed less friendly this trip. Like the uncontrollable weather, I don't allow these external issues affect the Limetree rating. We'll be back.
