We were offered and accepted a room upgrade $85/night for a room with a balcony overlooking the pool. That gave us 9 hours of the most atrocious “music” blasting so that sitting on the balcony was very uncomfortable! Also the bathroom floor and tile could use a good scrubbing. Was very disappointed.

Nice location. Parking is a little walk. Restaurant/bar was great - loved the bartenders. Nice view and pool. Walk across the street to the beach. Nice perk was free bike rentals at the hotel however many of the bikes were in disrepair and not many were available for the size of hotel. Overall a nice stay.

From the first moment we got to the property we agreed it with a smile and kindness and the excellent customer service skills that their crew had throughout the whole weekend was amazing! From checking in to checking out, there was a moment that we were not graded with a smile and asked if we needed anything. The property is absolutely beautiful and the rooms were top-notch! You did not feel crammed in them! The property and pool is beautiful and you have a beautiful view that ocean as you’re sitting by the fire pit and from a lot of of the rooms! I highly recommend this property as I believe you will enjoy your experience here. This is by far one of our favorite places to stay due to our experience this weekend.
