First time staying at this property, rooms were outdated and weirdly set up- you walked into a narrow hallway with bedroom, then kitchen was in the hallway followed by living room. Rooms need to be maintained better. Pools were okay and plenty of room for lounging. Restaurant within the resort was very good and the staff was friendly

We were very happy with our stay at the resort. This is a non smoking resort. There was an issue with neighboring guests smoking cigarettes. I contacted the front desk and it was handled quickly. The only thing I would say that could be updated is the bed in our bedroom. It was very squeaky. Other than that, the view from our room was breathtaking! Staff was excellent!

The property is well located. The staff was kind. The pools and beach are great. The food was good and it was reasonably priced. The Unit we stayed in was tired and worn. The furnishings are older. If someone put a little love into the unit it would help. Simple things like furniture not being centered under the television, bed not centered under the headboard etc would help the Units to look better but when you come down to it, it could use some updates. The location and amenities for the win.

The property was nice but wasn’t super clean. It was fun for a quick weekend trip but definitely wouldn’t stay for a week long vacation as it’s not very big, there’s not a lot of storage for things in the room. One elevator was broke during our 3 night stay but overall if was okay for our quick weekend trip to the beach. Was in a good location and the indoor pool was nice

Thank you so much for choosing to stay at the Avista and apologize as it seems all was not as we would expect for your stay. I do apologize it seems so many children were not under the control of their parents and it impacted you use of the pools. We do place signs all around the pools stating there is no Life Guard present and do expect our families to behave properly and to monitor their children's activity.
