We recently stayed ( family of 5) at Harbour Beach Resort in the month of June. We booked through the front desk( Angela is a gem) and our stay was wonderful.
We recieved daily maid service and had a beautiful ocean front room.The room was very clean and the balcony was great. The pool is one of the largest I've come across, and my children loved it! The beach and pool areas are locked so I didn't feel like I was sharing the pool with a bunch of people off the beach that didn't belong, which happened at another hotel before.
There is also a free park directly next door that had a huge play area and water streams that shoot up from the ground and a volley ball court. My kids loved it and it helped cut down the cost of the vacation and gave us some nice variety. The only downside to this condo/hotel was that we did not have more vacation time!! We will be back soon, Thanks for a wonderful stay!

My husband and I made reservations with West gate and when we showed they were over booked and had no room to give us! Then on top of that they took the money out of our bank account anyways even though they were the ones to cancel our stay. So now were in Daytona beach with no place to stay b/c everything was booked and then this place was telling us they didnt take our money until we called the bank to prove it so now we had to wait 3 business days for the money to go back into our account. I will never stay there again and their customer service was terrible.

I have never been to a Westgate like this one.....
Day 1 - arrive and go to office, located next to a CLOSED down Denny's....I had read on the message board that you could only get new clean towels and sheets on Wednesdays...when I questioned the person in the "office" about this she stated that is correct...there were 6 towels and 6 wash clothes in each room and you could come down for more on Wed....well when there are four in your party this would mean that you would each have one for the next 5 days...not sure about you but I use a clean one each day to wash my face.....
Night of day 1 - there is a large bed in one of the rooms as well as a pull out sofa in the "living" room....my son was sleeping on this...about 2 in the morning he woke us up to tell us that he had fleas on him...sure enough...the bed was infested with fleas...not sand fleas but fleas from an animal. I called the 24 hour number the next morning and the person that called back was very nice....when we went to the "office" to meet with the person on duty the next morning she acted like we were an inconvience to her...not sure how that was but she also insisted that they were not fleas in my sons head...but sand fleas...having owned animals in the past I tried to explain to her that I knew the difference....she stated that I did not understand...I have the fleas in a plastic baggie to show her....but....dumb person that I am I was wrong and really making them have to work for the day...she offered to try to find me another room when I asked them to remove the couch and bring in a new one...why should I have to move...just bring me a new couch....well they did arrrive about 2-3 in the afternoon to replace the matterass in the couch and even brought CLEAN sheets....
While the maintance man was there I mentioned that the ice machine in the freezer did not work - we had to purchase ice....as none of the ice machines had any in the building....he proceeded to tell me that it HAD to work, he just put in a new one...I advised him WELL it did not....as he then looked to check and make sure I knew what I was talking about.....that night my husband pulled the ref out and they had forgotten to hook the water back up...huh, that could be why it did not work...
As my title says, the pool was very nice...only problem with that was that you needed a key to access the pool from inside the building as well as the beach....this was a hugh inconvience if there were several in your party as you only received one key and needed it at all times. On the 2nd day there, the lock to get to the beach did not work, so maintance came out and taped the lock so that we could all access the beach from the pool...well now I know why it was important to keep it locked...we had all kinds of guest from the beach enjoy our pool that day as well...
All I can say is NEVER again.....
And yes, there were a large colonie of sand fleas that lived in our room too.....what a trip.

Don't even think about renting from the front desk in this place! They don't answer the phones, so you can't even get a reservation! We found a private owner, Stephanie Jones, who rents 4 units there. We stayed in 501, and our friends stayed in 809. Both units were great. 501 was spacious, clean, and the view was totally awesome! I will never try to rent from anyone but a private owner again!! Mrs. Jones took care of our every need! We ran out of clean towels, and she had the cleaner there within 1/2 an hour. She could have told us to sit on it and go to the darn laundry room, but that sure wasn't the case! The units were nicely furnished, well lit, comfortable, clean, and had an awesome view. The complex itself leaves a lot to be desired, so our room was our little heaven from the cruel world below.
