This ocean side bar is everything you want in a coastal hangout—laid-back, welcoming, and absolutely delicious. The burgers are a standout: juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection, with toppings that take them to the next level. Pair that with the salty breeze, stunning ocean views, and a lively atmosphere that feels both relaxed and fun, and you’ve got the perfect spot to unwind. Whether you’re here for a casual bite or to soak in the scenery with friends, this place delivers on all fronts.

I was so excited to try this place. Food just wasn't good. I let my family swim in the pool and noticed when we were leaving the pool is only for registered guests. Parking is a good ways away. Adult beverages were overpriced and I actually ended up pouring out my 1st margarita it was terrible. (POOL ONLY FOR REGISTERED GUESTS)

Sat for over an hour with no service whatsoever with 6-7 servers and bartenders working. Great atmosphere though.

We loved our visit to the dragonfly, the mocktail flavors watermelon and Pina colada were SO good! As well as the wings, cheese curds, and crab ragoon! The kids loved the pool and fire to warm up by after. We will definitely be back!

Nice view Hard to access if you aren't a hotel guest. Dragonfly restaurant is quite a distance from parking. Service was OK, but we had to order and receive our orders at the bar. No table service. I ordered the fried pickles, they were soggy. My tuna Poke was only lettuce and tuna. The menu stated it came with avocado and cucumber. Highly disappointed that half the ingredients were left off.

Just not very good food. Everything we had was not very good

Of course this is a beautiful place to have lunch by the sea. I just wish their fresh ingredients were of higher quality. For example, the menu lists certain dishes come with "avocado" but it was actually an avocado paste and it tasted several days old. I can tell the citrus fruits were cut several days ago, as the edges are turning brown. The tomatoes on the salad tasted like they had been in the refrigerator a while. It depends what you order. The tuna poke bowl has really nice tuna and the mahi nachos are also fine because they don't have many fresh ingredients involved. Service is about what you'd expect for a pool bar. You'll probably get service at first in a reasonable timeframe. They often forget about your second drink order.

Not a bad little bar/restaurant right on the ocean

Poor customer service at the bar.

Would have given 5 stars across the board had they not advertised a gluten free crust for their Flatbread then told us they were out after we'd ordered. The gluten free crust on their online menu was pretty much the only reason we chose it.Great location & view though.
Dietary restrictions: Call & verify before you go as we fell victim to false advertising about gluten free Flatbread crust.

Great food on the Gulf..variety of outdoor seating. Nice vibe. Open to everyone, even if you're not staying at the Lodge.
