Overall, we enjoyed our time at Manhattan Tower. The room was clean, it was within proximity of the beach and FREE parking. I believe it’s a mixed residence, travelers and residents, which contribute the real sense of community within. The back deck area is great for sipping your morning coffee and watching boats pass off the Intercoastal Highway. The walk to the beach is a tad more than what’s represented, which didn’t bother me, however, was a little bit much for my 4yr olds. Cabs are all over the place, so for a couple bucks they can take you to and from the main beaches, restaurants and tourist shops. I’d definitely bucket this stay as more of an experience, as it’s such a unique set-up, you’re bound to be brought back to a time warp, surrounded by classic, antique 50s-70s décor. Honestly, the room’s layout and features feel as if they haven’t changed either. I love the integrity, but some minor maintenance is needed due to normal wear and tear. Fortunately, this was being addressed, as we met a brand-spanking new employee who appeared to be brought on just for that. Would definitely stay again, as well as recommend to others.
