We enjoyed our stay! We were able to check in early and had a quick 2-3 minute walk to the beach. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean, and the a/c was working well! Even better, for someone who travels frequently with their spouse, there were 2 bath towels per guest! That rarely happens… we usually have to request extra towels! The bed was very comfortable, as were the pillows. There are great restaurants within a very easy walking distance. Overall we were very pleased!
