We had two rooms. They were roomy but one AC was in terrible shape and did not cool properly. Also, in 2026-no smart TVs. Strange. The elevator was down multiple
Times Each day of our stay, 5th floor! This made it hard to enjoy the amenities the property has. 100 degrees and climbing 5 flights of stairs was awful. This was our first stay as we usually stay at Sirata and we were disappointed. For the money, there are better options.

Elevators were very slow, half weren't working. A lot of activities for kids and adults. Room was clean upon arrival. Drinks at the bar were pricey. I had asked for no housekeeping the last 2 days yet they came anyway. Laundry room was flooded, i told maintenance crew but they didnt seem to be concerned. At 657a, I heard banging, hammering and drilling going on upstairs, which definitely wasn't appreciated.

Make sure you don't leave anything in the room because they won't let you go back and get it once you check out. For example I accidentally left my Costa sun glasses in the room and a bathing suit and they refused to help. Gave me a stupid lost and found paper to fill out online. I literally checked out 5 mins prior. They lie and say they did not find my glasses or bathing suit when I knew where they were and said that they already cleaned the room which was another lie

Everybody (the staff) and everything (the resort itself) was terrific! But, a few hiccups did occurr...most of the ice machines didn't work and the elevator was a bit \"sketchy\"...sometimes it didn't work at all and other times it worked fine; sometimes it didn't stop at the right floor and sometimes it was a rough ride (bouncy). It definitely needs repairs that's for sure. Oh, and paying $25.00 PER DAY just to park your car plus all the \"resort fees\" wasn't great either!

This high priced resort gets a solid 3. Staff charged me full rate despite my having placed a 50% deposit on my stay. When I borught this up he deferred me to checkout time.
I purchased an upgrade in order to be able to check in early and the room/suite was spacious but....the hotel is very old and somewhat run down. There are there are only 4 elevators and only 2 of them were working. Room was clean although not spotless and there was no way to access a guide for the tv, no brochure in the room on where to find things and how to use things..such as the TV. There was no phone, no clock and no ice bucket in the room. The coffee maker had no cups although this room was equipped with dishes. There were no paper towels or dishtowels, just 2 dish cloths. Since there was no phone and no selection on the app to request things for the room, I had to go to the desk. I was told an ice bucket and disposable coffee cups would be brought up. I only got the ice bucket.
Pool was very nice as was the beach. The activities offered were good, as I was also able to sign up for activities at both hotels, although getting from one hotel to another could only be done via the beach as far as I could tell. Things were very hard to locate.
Rumfish Restaurant was beautiful with the big aquarium. However, My burger was burnt to a crisp and was taken off my bill so the customer service was very good. At the bar the following day the crab cakes were great as was the young lady that waited on me.

Disappointed at what Expedia offered me and what I was assigned at check in. Expedia offered a balcony room with furniture in it and at check in I was assigned what is called Juliet balcony, a sliding door with a rail😡no sitting area. Once I came downstairs to request a room with an actual balcony they told me that is the problem with third party booking, that Expedia misrepresents what you will be getting at check in. Very disappointed

Todo fue una experience, nosotros regresamos nuevamente el año que viene. Siempre íbamos a un vecino hotel, pero este año decidimos ver otras opciones y los escogimos a ustedes. Y la verdad que nos encantó más que el vecino hotel con barra hasta tarde.

The beachfront view was amazing. For the price I expected a little nicer. Like more newer better updated maybe. Staff was friendly but when we used the chat feature in the app it took a long time for them to get to our room. Ice machine in our building was broke. They didn’t clean our rooms each day which I thought was odd. But it was ok we didn’t really need it. Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. Check in and check out was super easy. Love the bracelets they give as a key card. Same bracelet gets unlimited pool towels/beach towels. It was my friend and I. They had sections for adults only which was nice. But to be honest it looks like a great place for family with kids too. A lot to do on the property for kids during the day and adults in the evening.

The first time my family and I visited the property we enjoyed it. However this visit wasn’t as appealing. We checked into the hotel with a polite front desk staff member but then when sent to the Mobile Check In counter we were rudely made to feel bad about not attending a morning sales pitch breakfast. On our vacation the last thing we wanted to do was sit through a time share pitch we had zero interest in.

Then as we went up to our room the main lobby elevator took a very long time to work because 1 of the 2 sides was broken so it caused a major delay and continued to do so the entire visit.

When we got to our room, we wanted to store our cash and travel documents in the safe but it was broken. That was very disappointing!

Lastly, the shower in room had a very leaky faucet and was incredibly difficult to turn on. When it was turned on, there was next to no water pressure. Very unacceptable!

Besides the advantage of the hotel being near the beach, the actual building needs major repairs in order to gain our business back.

The room was great. Wished we had a toaster though. Everything else was sufficient. We loved our view of the beach. Drawers needed fixing on the dresser for our clothes, couldn't close a couple of them. When we asked the staff about a certain activity, no one knew much and told us to download the app. Asked 3 different staff members. After downloading the app and looking at the map, we got a better idea of where things were. I really liked the fact you had a golf cart to take us to the other hotel where there were other activities and restaurants. Disappointed in some of the restaurants with the food selection. Enjoyed Playa taco though. Their food was great and service was good also. Why have ice machines if we can't get ice from the machines, there were none in working order. Next time we know to get ice and bring it to our room for the freezer. I do recommend the balcony beach view for your stay. Overall we enjoyed it there. Also, Liked that the resort supplied the towels and beach chairs and umbrellas. That is a huge help. We would love to return there again in the future.

My first night I had to deal with kids knocking on my door and running multiple times after dark. Not a very pleasant experience. As far as the room. Convenient being walking distance to the beach and having the chairs available. (As long as you get there early) The front desk employee when checking in want the friendliest. I did the pre online check in and when I went to the pre online check in counter no one was willing to help. The front desk, Clark locked customer service skills.

The location is fantastic—right on the beach with beautiful views and easy access to the ocean. The food and drinks were excellent throughout our stay, and the bar staff were outstanding. They were friendly, attentive, and made every visit enjoyable. We also loved the live bands during Memorial Day weekend, which created a fun and festive atmosphere. The fireworks display and holiday party were a great touch and made the weekend even more memorable.

On the downside, the pool is showing its age and could definitely use an update. Our biggest disappointment was the room. We were expecting an ocean-view balcony, but instead were given what was described as a \"Juliet balcony,\" which wasn't what we anticipated and didn't provide the experience we were hoping for.

Overall, the resort has a lot going for it thanks to its prime beachfront location, great dining, entertainment, and exceptional staff. With updated pool facilities and clearer expectations about room balconies, it would be an even better experience.

Hotel needs some maintenance. Elevators were very slow, buttons didn’t work well, interior was very warm, AC didn’t seem to be working in some areas (room was fine). Beach and pools were nice. They understandably closed the pools during lightning but seemed to extend the closures beyond what was necessary after area was clear. Parking seems ample but crowded and a little remote due to the restaurant. Some spaces are narrow.

When I checked in, Debbie at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. She also works the sister resort, The Tradewind next door. I walked over and had questions regarding available showers for guest checked out but still spending time on the beach and Debbie was helpful with that amenity. One of the issues is the fact that there is public beach available in front of the guest chairs/umbrellas on the beach. You pay an upcharge for the front row, and you have the public with tents set up in front of you. Also, the Hilton Garden next door allows their DJ to play music and DJ so loud that you can hear it on the entire beach at the Rumfish. The system of standing in line in the morning is painful compared to the old system with the app on the phone for reserving chairs/umbrellas. Also, not that I use the pool, but there were more kids in the adult pool then adults. Finally, ice machines need updated so that there is ice available after 9:00 am.

The room was clear and the staff was friendly. The only major complaint we had is that the security is not too tight.

We noticed several people just taking advantage of the resort without being guests. There were kids on the adult pool with a large family and coolers and they did not seem that they were all guests. Security should be enforcing better so the paid guest can enjoy the resort without feeling unsafe.

Ok, I fully understand dated decor and beach vibes but this place was horrid. The elevator was broken 1/2 the time. It never stopped on the 3rd floor and it made terrible noises like it was going to drop you. The room was smelly, the couch was broke and sofa cushions were coming apart. The AC was on point and worked well! The door to the room didn’t shut all the way- there was a gap that you could see light through.
The bell hop was VERY RUDE and wouldn’t allow us to use a dolly to get groceries in and even move our jeep doors inside. I asked nicely and he legit told me umm no you cannot borrow this and no I cannot help you move the doors. (Fine whatever just let me borrow the cart.)
Also, I was told that we could have our own chairs, bought them and the same bell hop refused to bring them up and said you cannot have personal beach chairs- that was a lie. The whole place was filled with them.
The last day, there was an employee that legit lost her crap on people, they called the cops it was a whole mess.

I would NEVER stay here again.

The room was okay but i was upgraded to a king bed from a double bed and paid a discounted upgrade fee but somehow I lost the balcony which was important to me and it was on my original reservation. The view was good. Pool view and part beach.
The staff was friendly and helpful but they were understaffed. At the Rumfish Resort lines for getting our beach chairs and umbrella which were limited to the 2nd row and back because the first row required a fee. No adult pools anywhere within the Tradewinds or Rumfish. No umbrellas in none of pool areas but plenty of lounge chairs. Location on the beach fantastic. Multiple pools great. Very little service in the pool area. Housekeeping was fantastic. AC and bed and soundproof excellent. Sharing of amenities with the Tradewinds was awesome. Feeding of the ducks and boat ride very nice. Rumfish Grill aquarium and service great, a bit expensive. The Palms great food. The best drinks, food, and value Playa Taco. Coastal Pizza okay. Rumfish lobby not resortlike and our welcome was by a timeshare person and no assistance with luggage although perhaps we could have asked. Just from my experience we have always been greeted. Parking good, although for a fee. Super close. Always availability. You can request a ride to the Tradewinds and they showed up immediately.
In summary, the Tradewinds is superior. The lobby is beautiful, not sure about the rooms, the amenities can be used by both.

All in all, we had a great stay! the location of the property is perfect and the beach was so nice. The staff was very kind and helpful (contrary to their sister property next door)! We especially loved the lady who does breakfast and coffee in the morning by the front desk, she definitely put a smile on everyone's face! We tried 3 of the restaurants onsite (RumFish Grill, the pizzeria at the other property and Gulfside Kitchen) and the food and service were really good too! The hotel itself needs a little love, it is not in the best shape, but it was ok. The pools were nice, except the one in the kids area with the pirate ship; it was pretty \"cloudy\" so we did not get in! Our room was comfortable and we liked the configuration, it was perfect for 2 adults and 2 teens since we had a lot of space and separated areas. It would be nice if there was added security or supervision on site so rules were respected. There was ALOT of people smoking weed and cigarette around the pool and public areas, which was annoying.

We traveled to Florida and relied entirely on Uber during our stay, with no guest vehicle associated with our room. During check-in, a parking pass was offered for occasional visits from a local family member, but we were never informed this would result in recurring daily parking charges being added to our bill. Discovering multiple days of parking fees at checkout was frustrating and avoidable with better communication. While the resort ultimately upgraded our room and improved our stay, the experience was overshadowed by the initial room issues and billing confusion.

Great stay overall, with a few things to be aware of

We had an overall great stay — the property is comfortable, and the ocean view was amazing. The staff were friendly, and the location worked well for our trip. The atmosphere felt relaxed, and most essentials were exactly as expected.

There are a few areas future travelers should know about.

The carpet was noticeably dirty, which took away from the otherwise clean feel. Replacing the carpet with tile would be a meaningful improvement.

The air conditioner was quite noisy, especially at night, which may bother light sleepers.

There’s no proper pathway between buildings, making it less convenient to move around the property.

Despite these issues, the stay was still enjoyable, and the positives outweighed the inconveniences. With a bit more attention to maintenance and accessibility, this place could be excellent.

I liked how they cleaned the room everyday and all fancy! The beds were so comfortable to sleep in and I slept well in them too! Food was delicious in the area and lots of places in walking distance as well!

What I didn’t like is that we got all of our towels including shower, hand and floor towels but no wash clothes when we checked into the room. Usually we get wash clothes but I had to call front desk and ask them to bring some up. They brought them up but like i mentioned no wash clothes were in the room at check in. They just need to make sure all types of towels are in the room before guests can stay in the room.

Other than that everything else at the hotel was great!

Thank you,

It was a beautiful view and access to the beach. Many pools which was cool. Had a blast there but there were a couple downfalls. The floor in the room was dirty/ not mopped or cleaned. Also the shower had hair still in it. A glass in the cabinet was dirty. The beds looked pretty clean. When asking the front desk where the gym was, she said she didn’t know and sent is to the sister hotel next door. There was literally a fitness room in our hotel also, which we later found. Also, during s’mores time, the smoke from the fire smokes out the other half of the beach/bar/sitting area. To be honest, I would return because of the convenience to the beach and the grounds/pools were very cool.

We reserved a 2 queen bedroom villa, when we arrived the hostess appeared to not care too much about her job and did not offer the champagne, (which I saw on you tube and was excited to enjoy) once we entered our room, it was full of bugs, like abnormally full of bugs. We spent one night, which we didint get queen beds, they well full beds. My wife woke up with bed bug bits,(I’ll upload) photos. Once I complained, the manager was extremely thoughtful and listened, he sent us to another building to which we now had 2 queen beds. It finally felt like we got what we paid for. The room was extremely nice. I feel that is what we should have had from the start since we paid for that… The surprise parking fees ($25.00 daily) and resort fees ($55.00 daily) was a surprise. Once we walked around the resort things came together. We were able to walk between hotels and enjoy all of the amenities including pools and restaurants. My family started to love the resort. We planned on driving else where but realized, we really didint need to leave the resort as it had EVERYTHING. One downfall, I will admit was when we were waiting for a shuttle one of the managers approached us and tried to sell us a timeshare, but initially labeled it as a tour and not a presentation I did not like how she tried to manipulate me and my wife, and she was extremely pushy which clearly he was trying to push a Hilton timeshare. Besides all the negatives, I will say my family had a positive experience.

Rooms are clean the cabanas and waterslide are great. The staff is helpful and have a good disposition .

I gave a three star review for a few reasons…

6 floors with 4 ice machines and none of them worked both days, in Florida on a resort on the beach?!? The elevators are a nightmare. One of the elevators was out of commission both days; the lights didn't work on some of the buttons so you weren’t sure if it was coming or going to stop on your floor. ALSO, The elevators are hot super so hot if it broke down with you on it idk how long you would last and the glass was super dirty on the window (this might sound nitpicking just when you spend $400 a night you expect it to be well kept)…

I have no problem taking the stairs honestly I’d prefer stairs when we don’t have our luggage HOWEVER, when you decide to take the stairs it smells horrible like New Orleans in summertime horrible.

We have no complaints about the staff or the rooms. The beds are comfortable we slept well and our balcony was supposed to be resort view but we had a view of the ocean which was a nice surprise.

I took my granddaughter and her friend to RumFish. We loved it. From the pools, beach access, restaurants, s’mores at night…the list goes on. So many things to do, we never got bored Although the rooms seem a bit outdated, they are clean and nice. Fine when you have sloppy teenage girls along. We had a Villa, 2 bed Lanai Gulf front view room, which was great for the girls to go right out the back door to the pool or out to the beach.
Several dining options, with the access to the other TradeWinds location, allowed for a different meal each night. Our favorite was the Italian restaurant.
The staff were all friendly and helpful. Even our cleaning lady, who didn’t speak English, was so sweet. She got her phone out and translated messages so she could understand what I wanted her to do.
If you want a great location for a family beach vacation, this is the spot!

The room was small. Not a lot of activities for family with kids.

The place is definitely in need of a remodel. The cleanliness was not what I expected and not what the pictures portrayed. One elevator working, with no AC in it. Our beds were close to the door and could hear everything and everyone at night. We made the most of our trip, the only plus was the kid amenities in the evening and the beachfront.
The sister hotel seemed to be getting upgrades.

Location is excellent, and having the beach chairs and umbrellas available is a huge plus. You have a pool right at the beach and several other pools too. We only had problems with the elevators (only 1 out of 4 was working at one point), the games at the entrance were broken, one of the shower gel bottles was broken, and the table inside the room was made of glass and was flimsy, we had to take out the top so my kids wouldnt flip it over.

Those were relatively minor inconveniences, but when traveling with kids, waiting for an elevator that doesnt come can feel like hours...

Staff was very courteous and helpful explaining the amenities.

This was our second time staying here and was and still is very clean, and maintaining the beautiful resort. Would definitely go back again for sure and staff was helpful when our flight was so late and understood that we was going to be very late checking in.

This trip was supposed to be something special for my family. For starters there was a huge wasp nest on our balcony, which we were told would be taken care of - never was. Then our AC stopped working - they did offer to move us but by then it was day 3 of our trip. I was told that they were going to waive our pet fee and resort fees for the ‘inconvenience’, but haven’t seen that happen yet either. The elevators have only worked about half the time, and there is no AC in elevators or main lobby area. This property is not very handicapped friendly or accessible due to lack of onsite transportation options (& non-working elevators).
All of that aside - almost all staff members we’ve encountered have been fantastic. The beach views are stunning. Onsite activities are great. The rooms are clean and the free WiFi is good.

Clean rooms and nice bars.
However, 3 out of the 4 elevators were out which made it very inconvenient.

I didn't stay and had to pay for something I didn't use, even paying for insurance, I communicated to the hotel that it heard an error in scheduling the dates in the same second it was done, it took hours to answer me saying that I couldn't do anything, I found it a great lack of consideration and empathy

I loved how everything needed is all in walking distance from the resort! I didn’t like the musty smell in the room but purchased air freshener and dryer sheets and it helped tremendously.

This place was great!

Really enjoyed rumfish overall but definitely need to come back.

The kids night out was perfect for date night with my wife kid free

Resort pools were always clean and areas around them well maintained.

The beach area was breathtaking and included the loungers with our stay.

Lots of activities for the kids we were never bored.

There were some hidden fees we were surprised with when we checked out. But it wasn’t much so we overall enjoyed ourselves.

We had a wonderful stay at Rumfish. The ocean view from our room was beautiful. The amenities of beach towels and beach loungers and umbrellas was nice and easy to access. They had a lot of fun activities for kids.

About 2 days into our stay we were forced to move rooms due to a \"maintenance issue.\" No one would tell us what the issue was. When front desk called to request we move, they offered to send someone to help use move items. I went to get my new room key and the lady at the front desk (Rachel I think) was so rude. She kept asking me what the maintenance issue was, as if I even knew. She had an attitude about having to make the transition in the computer, as if it was my fault. They never sent someone to help. I traveled alone with 3 children age 10 and under. I also have family with us. we requested 3 times before we even got there to be placed in close rooms. We weren't even on the same side as each other. We requested to be placed together once I was told to move and they still wouldn't do it. Extremely inconvenient for everyone in our party. The roof leaks in the room. The housekeeping didn't show up until 5 at night.

Smores were or favorite! Reserving chairs starts at 9 and \"restarts\" at 2pm. They told us after 2 to just find open chairs on the beach... well, obviously there were none available from the morning round of reserved seats. Handicap accessibility is not great. very much a challenge! Chairs aren't close to the water and the wheelchair for the beach can only be used to take the person to their chair then immediately return the wheelchair.
I read many reviews that said skip this resort and save your money, but I was already convinced to stay here. Don't.

How is a little displeased because the elevator kept going out? We also got woke up on one morning with the alarm going off the fire alarm called the front desk and got a rude employee and I also don’t like that. I did not get a final bill when I checked out.

The nearby property helped provide several things to do. The entertainment live musicians by the bars everyday provided a great vibe. The buildings cable went out during the NBA finals but I survived. The spa is renovating but my expectations are high. I would return to this resort. I had a great time overall.

Long line and no staff at front desk upon arrival. Elevators were broken majority of time and are very old, decrepit and honestly kinda scary. Room was on 5th floor, literally right across hall from elevator. Heard elevator dinging and loud voices of guests at all hours. No water pressure (shower/sink). Beds and pillows super uncomfortable. Pools are small and have no view of ocean and were heavily overcrowded. Positive notes: loved the coffee counter in the lobby and great location.
