I recently stayed at Sterling Reef for a family vacation. The amenities were nice, and the view from our room was absolutely stunning. However, there were significant downsides, especially regarding the elevator situation which was quite frustrating, and the check-in process was delayed by three hours. Overall, while I enjoyed my time at the beach, the operational issues really impacted my experience.

Our stay at Sterling Reef offered a beautiful beach experience but was marred by significant inconveniences. The well-maintained rooms provided a comfortable environment, yet the wait time for elevators was frustrating, and our delayed check-in created complications. Despite these issues, the beach and local atmosphere made it a memorable family vacation overall.

I spent a week at Sterling Reef and while I loved the stunning view from our room and appreciated the spaciousness of the accommodations, there were some significant downsides that really affected my experience. The long waits for elevators were incredibly frustrating, and our late check-in time didn’t help either. The staff gave us some vouchers to try to make up for it, but the communication could definitely have been better regarding activities. Overall, I enjoyed the beach and the local atmosphere, but the service definitely needs improvement.

Our stay at Sterling Reef had its ups and downs. The stunning view from our unit was a major highlight and the spacious room really suited our family. However, the elevator situation was unacceptable, as waiting for an elevator could take up to 30 minutes, which is problematic, especially in an emergency. Also, our check-in was delayed by three hours, greatly affecting our first day.

Our stay at Sterling Reef had its ups and downs. The views from our room were absolutely stunning, and the spacious layout made it comfortable for our family. However, we faced significant frustrations with long elevator waits and a delayed check-in, which put a damper on our arrival. Despite the gorgeous beach outside, the lack of organization and communication from the hotel made the experience somewhat disappointing.
