The brand new pool just opened while we were there and it is wonderful and served by great pool staff with delicious menu. truly all the staff were very kind and helpful. it seems that the renovations for the new suites are wrapping up and there was no inconvenience from this.

need to book beach chairs well in advance and pricey, but you can get same day setups starting at 9 am in the third row. it is a strange complaint, but the pools in the beach club and camp watercolor are too warm and the water was barely refreshing on a hot summer day. we opted to stay cooler in the ocean.

this was our first visit to WaterColor Inn. The location is absolutely beautiful! It actually had the vibe of an island resort. Loved FOOW restaurant. My teenage boys loved the complimentary bikes. Staff were pleasant and helpful but several were not very knowledgeable. Beach setups I thought were overpriced particularly when they do not provide beachside service of food or beverage. At Camp WaterColor (where the lazy river and waterslide are), they do not provide towels which I thought was insane! We opted to walk there from the inn which was about one mile away, so we had to buy beach towels there. You have to bring your beach towels over from the inn. There is construction going on which caused some traffic congestion near the entrance. LOTS of golf carts which is definitely the best way to get around the property, but frustrating for car drivers (golf carts blocking the road around the entrance). We will definitely get a golf cart next time. Overall we enjoyed it and will go back.

no beachside service of food or beverage, no towels at Camp WaterColor

Best location in Watercolor/Seaside right on the beach and easy walking distance to shops/restaurants. Ocean views from the rooms (3rd and 4th floors have the best views)

You have to wait in line each morning for a beach chair and it costs $75. The beach is also really crowded

The Inn is beautiful! The staff is 100% focused on making your stay at Watercolor Inn one to remember! Food at FOOW is excellent and pool service is prompt.. easy access to the beaches with reserved area for guest.

2nd floor room has no view of the beaches as they are below the sand dune. I would suggest booking the 3rd or 4th floor rooms if a view of the beach is expected. Beach chairs and umbrellas are not included with the rooms so be prepared to pay and get there early as they go quickly..
