Ponce De Leon Hotel

Ponce De Leon Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The place is an old world feel in downtown. My room was tucked in a corner facing another building and the main road. There is no parking which is a bit tricky to manage if you have a vehicle to move items from. The room is basic and the bathroom I had was sparse, and not in great shape. I took a chance for a bargain and I’ll make a different choice next time."

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful Stay with Exceptional Staff! We absolutely loved our stay at SkyBeach Resort! The property was beautiful, the atmosphere was fantastic, and we really enjoyed our time there. A special shoutout to the front desk staff, who were absolutely amazing! Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They truly made us feel taken care of and deserve special recognition for their outstanding hospitality. The only two things that could have been better were the shower in our room, which wasn’t working properly, and the shuffleboard area. We would have loved to play, but we couldn’t figure out where or how to get the sticks and pucks. Some clearer instructions would have been helpful! Aside from those minor inconveniences, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely consider staying here again. Thank you to the fantastic team for making our visit so enjoyable!"
