Room was clean and bed was comfortable. The view was incredible. Housekeeping staff was great about getting the sand out of the room. Loved the tiki bar(a tad bit expensive)but nice to have handy. Wish the pool stayed open until 9-10pm. Closed at 7pm is hard for late evening swimners. Very quiet and secluded.
