We booked a room just a few days before our trip and we're so glad we picked this location. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. This hotel is very family friendly, we stayed Easter weekend and they had an Easter egg hunt and meet and greet with the Easter bunny. The location is awesome, just across from the water with beautiful views. Lots of nearby restaurants and options for food.
