  • Massive 3,000 sq ft pool that feels like a tropical resort
  • Free airport shuttle runs every 30 minutes
  • Balconies with views of the lagoon and airport runways

Hurtig oversigt: A legitimate resort pool complex stuck in an office park directly under the flight path.

Anmeldt af @kenzoandbenI booked this for a quick layover but didn't want to leave! Watching the planes take off over the lagoon at sunset from my balcony was honestly magical. The room was super quiet, and the breakfast spread was exactly what we needed before our next flight.

The hype

Travelers love the pool and lagoon views but consistently complain about the noise and dated rooms.

Reality check

The 'resort' vibe ends the moment you step into the hallways, which feel tired and in need of a refresh.

  • You are an aviation geek who wants to watch planes all day
  • You need to kill 5+ hours in the sun before a flight
  • You are a cruise passenger needing a reliable pre-trip crash pad

Renhed & Vedligeholdelse

7.8
  • Housekeeping: Daily service is standard, but attention to detail (dusting high spots) is sometimes lacking.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Clean but dated. Grout is often discolored due to age, not necessarily filth.
  • Maintenance: The property shows its age. Peeling wallpaper and worn carpets are common complaints.
  • Linens & towels: Standard Hilton white linens; generally fresh but towels can feel thin/scratchy.
  • Odors & scents: Common reports of 'musty' or 'humid' smells in rooms, typical for older Florida hotels.

Før du booker

Godt at vide

  • The airport shuttle runs 5:00 AM - 12:30 AM; outside these hours you need a taxi/Uber.
  • Breakfast is NOT included for most rates and costs ~$26/person.
  • There is no valet parking; it's self-park only and expensive.

Hvad skal du pakke

  • Noise-canceling headphones or heavy-duty earplugs
  • Swimsuit (the pool is the main selling point)
  • Portable steamer (irons are hit-or-miss in dated rooms)

Værelses-genie

Bedste valg

  • High-floor Lagoon View rooms for the best scenery
  • Corner rooms for slightly more space and light

Værelser at undgå

  • Rooms near the elevator (high foot traffic)
  • Lower floors facing the parking lot (less privacy, same noise)

Værelses-anmodnings-genie – kopier og indsæt

I would appreciate a high-floor room facing the lagoon, as far from the elevators as possible, to minimize noise.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål og skjulte tips

Alt hvad du gerne vil vide før du booker.

Is the airport shuttle actually free?

Yes, it runs every 30 minutes from 5 AM to 12:30 AM. Pick-up is at the 'Hotel Shuttle Zone' on the departures level.

Can I walk to restaurants nearby?

Technically yes, there is a strip mall about 10-15 minutes away, but the roads are busy and not pedestrian-friendly. Uber is safer.

Is the pool heated?

Yes, the large outdoor pool is heated and open year-round, usually sunrise to sunset.

Does the hotel have a resort fee?

No explicit 'resort fee', but parking ($38) and breakfast ($26) add up quickly.

Can I spot planes from my room?

Yes, but the balconies have a wire mesh screen that makes photography difficult.

Is there luggage storage if I arrive early?

Yes, the bell desk will hold bags, though some guests have reported long waits for assistance.


Insidertips

  • The 'Herb N' Kitchen' grab-and-go is often faster and cheaper than the sit-down breakfast buffet.

  • Walk to the end of the pier behind the pool for the best unobstructed sunset views over the lagoon.

  • If you have a car, drive 5 minutes to '94th Aero Squadron' for dinner—it's a historic restaurant right on the runway.

5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted

  • 💡The 'balconies' are actually screened-in cages, likely for safety/bugs, but it feels a bit restrictive.

  • 💡The hot tub is frequently reported as lukewarm or out of service.

  • 💡You can rent bikes to ride around the Blue Lagoon office park loop (it's about 3 miles).

  • 💡The elevators can be painfully slow during morning checkout rush.

  • 💡There is a small convenience store in the lobby, but prices are airport-level high.
