I booked this as a post-cruise hotel through Hotels.com. I had a death in the family and had to cancel our cruise, flight, pre- and post-hotel plans. I contacted my pre-cruise hotel, which had a no refund policy, and they gave me 100% money back with only 3 days notice. The airline did the same thing and I had cruise... More

I chose to stay at this little hotel while all my colleagues chose sheeny shiny corporate options. While they were networking in sleek nondescript bars, I was hiding out by the beach. Perfect home-from-home to cope with full-on business trips. More

This is a perfect small hotel right on the "broadwalk" in Hollywood Florida. The hotel is steps away from the beach, and some of the rooms have beautiful views of the water.The rooms are huge and many of them are 2 room suites with kitchens. The rooms are bright and decorated very tastefully. Everything to make a stay comfortable was... More

Great little gem right on the broadwalk! The room was extremely big and light, bathroom a bit dated. The staff was also very helpful with the online check-in for the flight because my internetconnection wasn't working. Complimentary parking. We stayed for 3 nights at the end of our holiday and came back home very relaxed. Nice restaurants at a 20... More

Best vacation we had in a long time! The walkabout was the perfect location easy access to the beach and broadwalk. The staff so friendly and helpful. The rooms clean. We really enjoyed the tiki bar and the locals that hang out there. Can't wait to go back. More

We had a very relaxing time at the Walkabout! There's a great "broadwalk" right outside where people bike, rollerblade and walk back and forth. A few steps more and you are on the beach. We were given beach towels and had access to chairs that seemed to be brand new. There are also cabanas on the beach and chaise lounges... More

Located directly on boardwalk, we did not rent a car. Walked to restaurants/trolley. We found it is 13 blocks to the restaurants and trolley. Doesn't seem like anyone works there, bartender let us in our room, housekeeping answered questions-Otherwise we went across street to Marriott to ask questions. More

Dear Customer, There are quite a few restaurants within 1-3 blocks from us. We are 1 block from one of the Trolley pick up locations.. Our business hours are 9am to 5pm, which is clearly outlined. Yes our Personnel working our outdoor tiki bar does assist with questions/check-ins after 5p.m. More

The location of this hotel is great as it faces the beach and is right on the "broadwalk". The nice part is that it is like an apartment rather than your typical hotel room with 2 beds. You have a separate kitchen with a separate eating area, a bedroom, bathroom and a livingroom with a pull out couch. We stayed... More

I booked a room at this hotel through expedia. The following morning the hotel called me to inform me that a mistake had been made and that in fact they were booked solid that night. I said thank you, and proceeded to book a room at a different hotel. I went on my trip, came back and found out that... More

Dear Customer A. We did issue a 50% refund. B. We did have your room reserved, we never received a phone call, voice message or email from you. We did not have a contact number on file for you since the reservation was booked through Expedia. C. Due to the "no show", we treated the reservation as a cancellation. Our... More
