We're excited to announce that Grande Shores Ocean Resort has been named a winner of Tripadvisor's 2026 Traveler's Choice Award, placing us among the top 10% of accommodations recognized worldwide. This marks our second consecutive win, following our 2025 recognition, and we couldn't be prouder of the consistency behind it.
This award is determined solely by authentic, first-hand reviews from our guests over the past 12 months, and your reviews tell a clear story. You repeatedly point to how clean we keep the resort, from the hotel and condo units to the common areas, and to a staff that genuinely seems invested in making each stay easy and enjoyable. One recent review highlighted a maintenance team member who resolved an issue within minutes of being notified. Another guest praised our front desk for helping coordinate a last-minute walk in reservation without a hitch.
"Winning this award for a second year in a row means a great deal to our entire team," said Michael Spillane, Resort Manager. "We know this is only possible because of the people behind the scenes, our housekeeping, maintenance, and guest services team, who show up every day to take care of our guests."
Tripadvisor's Matt Dacey, Chief Marketing Officer, noted that this level of recognition reflects a lasting impression on visitors significant enough that many chose to write a glowing review, and that's exactly the kind of impact we hope to keep making.
Thank you to our guests for your honest feedback, and to our staff for the consistency that's now earned us back-to-back wins.
