You know, many nay sayers will tell you this place is old & outdated; whatever. Yes, it’s been around a while, BUT. It’s still got beautiful well maintained grounds, excellent restaurants & the Spa? C’mon. We’ve been coming 2 years in a row now. We WILL go again next year!! We love it! BTW, it’s not outdated. Rustic in style, modern in capabilities. Learn the floor plan & enjoy. 👍

The property was conveniently located and offered several amenities including adults only pool and large spa. However, the property is antiquated and could use updating. It was obvious our room used to be a smoking room and was no refurbished properly.

My stay was very nice with no complaints. I had a harbor view room, which was also very nice. The parking situation to get to my building was a little odd, but other than that, I had a great experience and I will be returning.

The hotel is in a superb location, but unfortunately the rooms are in desperate need of an upgrade. The bathroom was dated and the tiles in the shower were black in areas, the lighting was dark (and I love muted lighting!). Overpriced for the standard of room.

We stayed at the Abbey for two nights. When we arrived, the room was not very clean. There was trash in the waste baskets. On the second day, we came back to our room around 3:00, the room was still not clean. I went to the front desk and asked if our room was going to be cleaned. They responded that they only clean it after we check out. This is not the level of service that I expect from a resort that charges $350/night.

We’ve been staying here for several years for a quick getaway before school starts, as it’s conveniently close to home. However, we continue to face issues with check-in each time. This year was particularly frustrating, as some rooms weren’t ready until 6 p.m., despite a 4 p.m. check-in time, which isn’t guaranteed. It’s challenging when check-out is at 11 a.m. The hotel appeared to be understaffed in several areas. On the positive side, we did receive a $50 room credit, and the indoor and outdoor pools are excellent and family-friendly. Just be prepared for some potential frustrations.
