My husband and I visited the Desoto in late January, and although the weather was a little cool, the service was great. The room was clean, the ocean view was spectacular, th http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r388162 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488065 We loved everything about the Desoto the room,staff ,pool ,ocean It was all great. We will go back their. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488065 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r380370 I thought the rates were high when I checked in and man they went up when I checked out. Managemnt was not "friendly" at all. I am a local and will never stay here again and further, I will advise anyone that will listen about our negative experience dealing with this hotel. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r380370 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488066 Great place to stay. comfortable beds. clean and updated. great shower. lots of hot water. We did not have a beach front room. Nice pool area and some chairs on beach. Good breakfst bar. I would stay again. Only thing is it is far from main part of town. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488066 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r370448 If you go, get the rate confirmed in writing. The non-smoking room smelled of heavy smoke and mold. No hot water, just luke warm. No breakfast left at 8:45 AM. No blanket, only 2 tiny towels; thermostat on heater did not work. Very noisy due to poor construction. Tiny pool. Desk personnel could not move us to clean room. Owner/manager unavailable until afternoon and unwilling to accomodate asmatic child's need for clean room. Not appropriate for children due to heavy smoke odor, mold, loud drunks partying on balconies, noise, no hot water. Inadequate parking. I am a travel professional. This is by far the worst experience I have ever had with a hotel. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r370448 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488067 The staff and facilities were great. We stayed a week and would have loved to have stayed longer. Unfortunately, we had to go back to the real world of work. We will be making plans in the next couple of months to return next summer. If you ever go to the Desota Beach Hotel, you won't want to stay anywhere else. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488067 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488068 The staff was ok, but the view was of the parking lot - and all the other guests stared right into our room - we had a small view of the ocean - and we paid top dollar for the stay! Parking is very limited - and no we won't be going back! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488068 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488069 ...just returned from our third stay at the DeSoto and it was the best yet....the new manager has made a distinctive difference...service was great, room was excellent and everyone on staff was cooperative and made us feel at home...we already made our reservation for 2008...if you haven't been there yet, you're missing a true Tybee experience. Dick and Sue Cromie http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488069 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488070 The first time we stayed we didn't know what to expect from the hotel and made reservations in the only room available. The stay was nice, the location good. It is on the beach and the pool was clean and uncrowded. The 2nd time we stayed we knew the layout of the hotel and we booked far in advance. They offered us an oceanview room (at additional cost). Since the shape of the hotel is a bit like a square, we knew that there is only 1 side that has a view of the ocean. When they showed us our room, we were nowhere near the ocean. We had a whole other "arm" of the building plus the parking lot and pool in the way of our "oceanview". The best view we had was of the parking lot. Also, the room location was noisy because the door opened onto a balcony 1 floor above the lobby. They did NOTHING to help us out. We were intentionally mislead and the stay was unpleasant. We are going down the street to the Ocean Plaza next time! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488070 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488071 We spent 3 nights at the Desoto Hotel on Tybee Islad. We would definitely recommend this hotel for your next stay. The location is great...so close to the beach. I will definitely stay here again. Customer service was great! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Desoto_Beach_Hotel/r488071
