Pier House Resort & Spa

Location

Location! Food excellent. Dining ambiance great. Bar tenders friendly and quick.

The staff was exceptional. Lee at the concierge desk was very knowledgeable about all the things to do and what would be a hit with the kids. The front desk and bell staff were accommodating and welcoming and nice to interact with. The poolside wait staff was attentive and very sweet to everyone. And the housekeeping staff were like ninjas; quick, efficient, and they would get in and out of the room without disturbing us no matter how late we slept of how short our time out of the room was. Everyone we interacted with was polite and genuinely seemed to like their job. The location is perfect, right at the top of Duval St makes it easy to walk to all the historic attractions, shopping, and restaurants. Also, being on the north side of the island puts it next to the harbor and a quick walk to the dock for all the different water excursions. I never felt the need to rent any transportation as everything was walkable from here. The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom and shower are very spacious. Two people could be getting ready at once with more than enough space to move. We didn't watch much TV, but there were plenty of channels to choose from. The beds were comfortable, and we all slept well. The AC was quiet and had no trouble keeping the room as cold as we wanted it, and it was in the upper 90s on our trip. The restaurant on site is good and not overpriced. In fact, it seemed to be one of the more reasonably priced places to eat on the island. Finally, the pool was clean, the hot tub large, and the private beach was not crowded and had more than enough chairs and spaces for everyone. I recommend swimming with goggles and exploring the small rock outcropping. We saw much more wildlife than I expected in such a small place so close to so much shipping activity.

Great location, easy walking distance to everything, beautiful pool and beach area.

Nicely appointed
