Loved the court yard, closed in on 3 sides nice big pool in the middle and open to the beach, live band every evening. A few people smoked around the pool area. We found the Thunderbird to be very affordable in a good location. The pool is very large, have your kids bring mask and fins while you watch them swim to live music, at least while we were there. The rooms are a little small, but nice. The beach is great, you could walk for miles. We were there for fishing and beaching and this place made it happen.

Let me start by saying that we were skeptical about staying here but took a chance. We needed a place that two families could stay next to each other and wanted to be right on the beach. Let's start there. The beach may be right by the hotel but it's at least 300-400 yards to the water. One does not run back to the room for something once they are on the beach. The hotel is obviously from the 1960's and has gotten new carpet, curtains, paint and bedding. The bathroom has new tile but the outdated plumbing fixtures remain. There is NO vanity space and no exhaust fan. The window air conditioning unit is on the opposite end of the unit so the bathroom is hot all the time. The photos on their web site and their brochure are obviously digitally enhanced. There is a concrete wall that seperates the first floor patios from the beach (a pain because you have to climb over) and the water isn't as close as it appears. We struggled to get the complimentary towels for our family for the pool/beach. We were given two a day for a family of four. Same problems with the towels in the bathrooms, always a few too few. The Tiki Bar was nice but way overpriced and closed way to early (7 most evenings). There was live music in the afternoon but quit about 7 p.m. There were many families around the pool each evening and having the music and bar available would have been a great asset. The straw that broke the camels back was the ants in the kitchen and bathroom and on the final day, a cockroach. At 100/day this place would be tolerable. However, at over 150/night it's way over priced.

Well kept, 60s beach front tourist court. Kids in pool, in central courtyard, stayed noisy until 11pm. Not a "resort," but on the beach. A 60's vintage tourist court that is relatively well maintained, albeit dated.

This hotel is far from being a resort. The hotel looks very tired. I didn't notice any recent remodelling. I expected better than what was available there. Waitress was great, breakfast was o.k. but overpriced. Beach is quite a distance to the ocean. Limited parking. I wouldn't go back.

Nice beach. All was fine. Hotel is nice and clean. Nice beach. Nothing but the beach. Very boring location.

After paying high prices in Miami this was very good for the money. The Tili bar was fun and a nice walk tto St Johns Pass.

Nice location somewhat run-down, older Pleasant atmosphere on beach. Older hotel. Needs some remodeling and updating

Don't expect too much - more bad than good, and 'resort' is used loosely around town. Nice beach view from private balcony, walk to beach, music @ tiki bar for those who love to drink. Dated FL room; shower put out mostly hot or warm water; tub, toilet & floor need scrubbing; AC is noisy; pillows are flat; limited parking spaces; black feet from dirty carpet & balcony. Try other hotels first.

Good location and clean. No breakfast of any kind. Very nice stretch of clean beach. Clean hotel, but really historic regarding the age of the building. Could use some restoration. Overall, a very nice place to stay with friendly staff.

Great location and nice beach This hotel is older and could be rated higher if they would renovate Great place that takes you back in time when hotel rooms were bigger. If you like everything modern and new, this is not the place for you. I have stayed in this area since I was a child and the Thunderbird is a great, older hotel. Yes they could update the rooms but the property is superb.
