Check-in isn’t until 4 although we were allowed to check in early. We went to the pool where the service was lacking, kitchen closes early and they started closing down pool at 5:30 we felt rushed. The whole reason we stayed there was to enjoy the pool but felt rushed out . It is not worth staying for one night . We ordered room service which also shuts down at 8 and could not find a menu in the website so the restaurant had to recite entire menu over the phone . I don’t recommend staying here for one night . We were disappointed.

The outside table was broken and had been patched, but my granddaughter was still able to put her finger in the hole. The floor was sandy and the bath tub nozzle was dirty. When I turned down the comforter, it was very dirty seemed to have chocolate on it or something. I have been staying here all my life and this place has gone downhill, but the prices have gone extremely higher.

This was our first visit, and overall the property and staff were lovely—aside from a very confused concierge upon arrival. Our disappointment was more about the disconnect between the price point and the actual amenities and experience provided.

The pool service was especially underwhelming. The staff seemed to be doing their best, but it was clearly understaffed. While the cocktails were decent, the food was unfortunately terrible. We ended up Doordashing lunch each day. Since the once-open pool bar is now closed and there are no outdoor self-service options, guests are entirely dependent on poolside service—which currently needs significant improvement.

Our biggest frustration as a family with small children was the lack of convenient beach access. We heard there had been various unsuccessful attempts over the years to keep non-guests away from the private pool area, but being told that a 200-yard walk (through the outdoor restaurant patio!) was the “easy” beach access felt dismissive and honestly pushed us over the edge.

At roughly $700 per night, we expected far better poolside amenities, including enough chairs for guests and more accessible beach access.

An entire week in Panama City Beach costs our family the same amount and we enjoy ourselves more. Unfortunately, because of these issues, we will not be returning.

Nice place but the room is very dated. The beach access at the pool has been removed so you have to go all the way around the hotel to access the beach. The beach bar has been closed due to renovations that have not even started. You can still get food and drinks you just have to wait for someone to come around and ask you. There is multiple pools so I think one should be designated for adults only. All that isn't bad but for over $500 per night we expected a lot more!

The location on the beach and the pool were the best parts. Outside of that, everything else was subpar and at times horrible.

I’ll start with the service. It took us 2 hours to receive our food from the pool bar. After asking 3 different servers, and waiting an hr and 45 minutes, we found out they forgot to even put our order in.

Our room had mold in the shower. The pull out bed was uncomfortable. The door to the porch for the balcony was broken. Overall the room was a 3 star resort at best.

It took 30 minutes to order a drink at the bar (echo). Get used to waiting, everything takes FOREVER.

The pools were dirty, and they claim the big one is heated but it definitely is not.

The staff overall is friendly and does their best, and even they seem frustrated with the lack of support, I assume from new management.

It’s a decent resort to stay at for a really good price, you just have to know what you’re getting yourself into.

While the location, physical pool area, bar and lobby were nice our room was nowhere near the expectation of a quality “resort” or even a modern hotel room. Our room looked every bit a hotel built in the 1930’s. It’s obvious the many owners and management companies over the years have never addressed how dilapidated these rooms are. Our room had old beat up furniture, couches, and cheap ill fitted curtains. The screen on the balcony was rusted and was torn. The bathroom was much worse. If you’re looking for a luxury experience, this is more like an old motel six offered up as some kind of historic resort.

The King and Prince Resort has a beautiful setting and in many ways is quite charming, especially the swimming pool area and the beach views. There just seems to be a lack of attention to detail with the property, such as black mold around the bathroom sink and dirt in corners. This may be picky, but when there is a sign in the room that bottled water will be replenished daily and it isn't, it was just another sign that the staff isn't paying attention.

They are undergoing a management change, and every guest is unhappy. The manager was very kind to me and treated me to a complimentary dinner. He did his best, but there is only so much one person can do! However, I will not go back until all the new management issues are fixed. It was a hot mess and not the resort you pay that kind of money to go to. It was almost a waste of money to be honest, and the pool was not really heated as promised, and it was miserable. Also, getting food and drinks during the day took hours. I hope they figure it out, but I am so glad I did not bring my husband bc we would never be going back.

We enjoyed our experience here. The staff were helpful and nice. They went the extra mile to make us feel special for our stay. My only issue is that the state of the facility, specifically our room was below expectation for the price point of this resort. The rooms are quite dated. Our bathroom had a sewage smell and the room in general looked quite old and tired. I know this is an older and historic property, but it felt like there were updates that could have been made to keep the historic charm while improving the guest experience. The location and the facilities and things to do are abundant. Overall I enjoyed my stay, but would be more interested in returning if there are notable improvements made to the rooms to bring them closer to modern times. 7.5/10.

We stayed in the historic building in March and absolutely loved the charm and character of the property. The building itself is beautiful and added a unique touch to the experience. During our stay we really enjoyed spending time at the beach, relaxing by the pool and hot tub, sitting on the swings, and having meals poolside. It made for a wonderful, relaxing weekend getaway.

The only small downside was that the room didn’t have a smart TV or the built-in charging stations we’ve become used to in many newer facilities. If you rely on those, it’s a good idea to bring your own full charger setup for phones, tablets, etc.

That said, it actually encouraged us to spend less time in the room and more time enjoying everything the property had to offer. In the end, that turned out to be a much better way to spend the weekend. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely return.

The room we rented was very SMALL. Bathroom was the size of a closet with NO HEAT and very old leaking fixtures. Old louvered swinging doors for the bathroom (I guess so heat might filter in). Terrible TV with shadow over the lower part of screen (which they offered to change out if we had stayed). Elevator didn't work so their staff helped us carry up luggage 3 flights of stairs. We paid for 3 nights in advance via Orbitz. After being very disappointed, we tried to check-out (not even using the room) but King and Prince staff refused to refund ANY of the unused nights saying Orbitz/Expedia was responsible. Orbitz said the hotel was responsible for a refund. We even offered to let them keep one night rent even though we didnt use the room in hopes they would credit / refund the two other nights, but they said no. . Since we didn't cancel within the hotel's policy time-line, we did not get any refund or credits. We left and rented at another hotel. What a waste of money. Lesson learned.... don't pay in advance on Orbitz and don't rent a room that we hadn't seen in advance. Pictures of the guest rooms and bathrooms at King & Prince hotel are very deceiving.
