This resort feels like a hidden gem, situated just a stone's throw away from a serene beach with practically no crowds. The staff was incredibly accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable. While the room we stayed in had its charms, it could use a few updates and some maintenance work. Overall, it's a fantastic spot for a quiet beach getaway, although a few improvements would enhance the experience.

I had a fantastic stay at Weston’s WannaB Inn. The atmosphere was charming and the laid-back beach vibe was just what I needed. The rooms were clean and spacious with a lovely view of the water. However, the couch bed wasn't the most comfortable, and a few areas seemed a bit dated. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I would definitely return.

I recently enjoyed a stay at Westons, and it truly felt like a hidden gem. The hotel is located right next to the beach and is surrounded by the peaceful charm of Old Florida. The rooms, while a bit dated, were spacious and comfortable. However, I did encounter some maintenance issues, and the air conditioning unit was quite noisy. Overall, the value for money was decent, especially considering the beautiful view of the Gulf.

We had a lovely stay at WannaB Inn, situated right on the beach, which is simply unbeatable! Our Sand Dollar room had a fantastic view of the ocean, but it was quite worn and could use some TLC. While the location is perfect for a beach getaway, some aspects of the room were disappointing due to lack of upkeep and amenities.
