Golden Magnolia Resort & Spa

Marina, Mike and Samantha were so kind and helpulf with my husband & me, we appreciate the treat we received in our 1st trip together. Thanks! Nice beach right in front of the Hotel, we went twice just walking a few.

Property was clean, however room requires updates it smelled of mildew. Additionally there were minimal towels for the beach or pool. Lastly there was no cook so the breakfast was available onsite as advertised.

PROS: - Beach is right there. Can't beat the location. - 24/7 access to the sauna. CONS: - This place is less a resort and more a tiny Event Center/Restaurant, so if you're in one of the 3 rooms attached to the kitchen, prepare for noise from the breakfast crew or if they have a private party, or, say a wedding, like what happened during our stay. Our room was adjacent to the prep kitchen so when events were happening, we were surrounded by clanging of pot, plates, people. Also, the smell of food constantly crept into the room. At the end of the day, we spent most of our time out of the room to enjoy the surroundings but Golden Magnolia should communicate that to people. None of these things were told to us up front so I thought it was a joke when they first showed us our room and seeing how it's just attached to the prep kitchen. Never seen anything like it before. Didn't love having all these strangers coming and going right outside my door and it's cheap locks. - There's not an on site representative of the"resort," just a phone number to call or text with, which seemed weird for a resort. The staff working there, only work for the kitchen or cleaning for certain hours of the day. I had to help another couple figure out how to check into their room bc no one was present to help them. - Pool had to be cleaned by the people staying at the resort.

Just a great place to be

Had a great romantic stay!!! No breakfast though

The location was amazing. But the grounds needed a lot of upkeep and the rooms were in rough shape. There was water damage on most walls and the ceiling, holes in the walls and I definitely would stay here again. There was no legit check in or check out process.

The place itself was beautiful! The only thing that could have been better was communication. We had a hard time getting checked in and breakfast hours was a bit confusing. One person told us it was all day, then someone else told us we missed it. I think a little more communication overall would have made things so much more enjoyable. Aside from that, the room was amazing and perfect. Such a convenient area right across the beach with so many walkable options to eat and shop.

Quiet and clean

The room was ok. I wouldnt classify it as premier, the carpet is disgusting and should be change. I would notnstay here again.

Quiet and Relaxing
