This hotel is stunning and the staff are so kind! We had our baby in tow and the bar let us take our drinks and food up to the room. Valet was so nice and the hotel is gorgeous! It’s in a great location! Will stay again for sure!

Reserved a two queen room, when I arrived they didn’t have one and I was stuck in a tiny room with just one queen, too late to find another room. So we had to share a bed. Unacceptable I didn’t get what I paid for and was not given a discount. Will never stay here again.

We were given the smallest room in the hotel at 150 square feet. We could barely get into the bathroom. We asked to be moved after a day and they did move us. The hotel then lost power at midnight and we had no air through the night or any power in the morning. We were packing in the pitch black with our iPhone flashlights. Hallways were completely black. 2 days later and we have not received any communication from the hotel which I think is terrible. We did like the hotel and location otherwise but our experience was not a good one.

The hotel lost power during our stay and their generators weren’t working, which left us in an 85 degree room overnight. While the power outage is out of the control of the staff, the overall handling of the situation was incredibly poor

Super cute hotel. Definitely not your cookie cutter big box hotel. Every human I encountered has been coached in hospitality and has bought into the program. I had a great stay.

The hotel was fabulous! I wish there was more communication about little Palm and how the reserved tables worked. We were at the pool early and saw reserved on the tables and had every intention of having lunch but assumed the tables were pre reserved only to learn that a group not staying at the hotel came in and were seated for lunch at the pool. Maybe even informed us when we book

Good location
Cute hotel within walking distance to everything we wanted. Loved the ability to borrow items for a beach day as well! Our only complaints were the cleanliness of the floors as there was something sticky in a couple spots from the day we arrived and throughout our stay that also included hair and gum on floor that was not ours. We could also hear and feel the vibration of the spin cycle from the washers as early as 7am to as late as 10pm throughout our stay.

Overall the Ryder hotel was a good option for us. Rooms were clean and good size. Pool area was cute but small. If you are driving to the beach they had chairs, towels, etc. to borrow but no sun umbrellas but overall a good selection. Location to dinning and the market shopping was walkable. Some place are a little longer walk (15 mins so it just depends on what you like). Limited onsite dinning menu (no kids meal so not for the picky eater). Room was not cleaned during our 2 night stay. No one answered when I call to get extra towels. Only parking is valet and it's $53/night (this does seem to be going rate for the area). Resort fee includes $10/night credit but it's only applied on each day so you can't do $20 one day and $0 the next (we were leaving at 5 a.m. so it wasn't really a perk). Overall a cute place with comfy beds.
