During my recent stay, I found the hotel's location by the beach to be fantastic, making it easy to enjoy the ocean. Unfortunately, the level of service left a lot to be desired, with multiple issues during my visit, including late room availability and a lack of attentive staff. While the atmospheric charm of the property is appealing, the dining experience did not meet my expectations and service was frustratingly slow. Overall, it felt like the hotel is struggling to maintain its quality.

We had a mixed experience at the King and Prince Beach and Golf Resort. The hotel boasts beautiful beachfront access and some truly charming rooms, but our service was inconsistent, which left us a bit frustrated. While the dining options were delicious, the noise level in the common areas was quite high, making it tough to enjoy our meals. Overall, it’s a lovely place but may benefit from some attention to detail.

My stay at the King and Prince Beach Resort was lovely, with beautiful grounds and a fantastic beachfront that really made the experience special. The rooms were quite large and comfortable, but they do show signs of age and would benefit from updates. The dining options were generally good, but there were a couple of hits and misses. Overall, it’s a charming place perfect for relaxation, even though the rooms need some improvement.

We had high hopes for this hotel, but ultimately, the experience fell flat. While the staff was friendly and accommodating, the outdated facilities and cleanliness issues left much to be desired. On the positive side, the location is beautiful, and being so close to the beach was a real treat. However, we won't be back due to the overall condition of the property.
