Very nice and spacious room with 2 queen beds. Close to Camana bay and great restaurants by the water. 5 minutes walk from the 7 mile beach. My daughter and I had a wonderful week.
Excellent stay in what feels like a very high end motel crossed with a small hotel. But don't think high end motel is a detraction. It is small, comfortable, and unobtrusive. No seaside view or fancy 10 story palacial building with a personal balcony, just a comfortable room with a gorgeous, spacious bathroom and everything you need. Only thing I missed is the hotel ice machines we have in the USA.
The beach is a short walk left or right, but I recommend going to seven Mile Beach (north), the beach to the south has limited access and is very rocky.
I felt safe and everything felt central and easy to access like restaurants and gas station etc. The only thing I did not enjoy was the service at the on property restaurant for breakfast. I found the wait staff to be unpleasant and seemed bothered to seat me and take my order. I also found the breakfast to be very bland and underwhelming. Outside of the restaurant however, I loved my room and everything else about the property.
location - amazing. minutes to the beach. minutes to several dining options. close to airport. easy to catch shuttles/taxi/bus.
front desk staff - lovely
great pool area.
only issue - check in is at 4pm which is as late as a check in can get. Our room wasn't ready until after 5pm so we sat and waited in the lobby for over an hour. We had to keep asking every so often for updates rather than being told when we might get our room. Later realized why our room wasn't ready on time - every single day we'd see the ladies cleaning rooms sitting on the chairs in the hotel rooms on their phones as we walked by. Did not see them cleaning even once. Imagine that - instead of cleaning, which is the job they're hired and paid for, they were sitting in people's rooms on their phones and because of that people weren't getting to check in on time. Infuriating.
The Locale was a cute affordable safe place to stay for our vacation. The rooms were clean, breakfast was delicious, and there were some cool options within walking distance (Camana Bay). The street in front of the hotel is very busy so it's not as serene as I had hoped, there were no ice machines, and the beach wasn't as accessible as I had heard. Overall, I would recommend it as the good outweighs the inconveniences.
Our stay at the Locale was great, the staff at the front desk was informative and helpful. They also offer free breakfast at the restaurant on location. The hotel does not have access to the beach on property, but there are several beach options nearby and the hotel provides towels, chairs, etc to help make your beach day easier. The only thing that could have made the stay better was housekeeping coming by. We think it was just miscommunication because everything else was great !
I would suggest resterants and shops near the property and continue to keep the cleanliness going. Some furniture needs to be looked at in rooms; they where loose on arrival
Staff were so kind and helpful. Beach about a 3 minute walk, bigger beach about a 10 minute walk. Rooms were bigger than usual, very spacious. Wonderful experience, definitely will be coming back
Absolutely loved the location of this property! Few minutes from the airport and the beach. The front desk staff is amazing. It was a solo trip for me and I felt safe the entire stay. The restaurant peppers, Devon house ice cream and the camana bay is walking distance. Will definitely return !
It was a decent place to stay but the ac was locked on 72 and it was hot at times in there. The floors needed mopping badly, we all had dirty feet just walking around inside. Other than that, the pool area at night was pretty and it was a good price.
Like that you have access to beach chairs, unbrellas and water flouters and that the beach was not to far away.
DId not like the property Pool too small and not very celan.
