Great Ocean front property. Overall relaxing and comfortable. Stayed in Ocean front room, like many times before. $$$$ There now is plywood covering the front instead of the old tiles which you could sit on deck and enjoy the ocean views. Very disappointing.

Great vacation spot right on the beach. Easy (but expensive) parking right onsite with come and go access. Room was a little dated but we don't spend much time in the room so it was perfect for us. We got a rollaway bed and it fit our family of 5 very well. Staff was very accommodating with all of our requests and the Shores Restaurant onsite had some of the best food during our trip. Our kids have already asked to go back!

The view is really pretty but the spa is pretty small for a hotel that big. The bar area closes at 9 which seems pretty early. There is no late check out or gift shop so if you need something you have to walk to the village or take the shuttle to CVS. It was nice but think I would like to check out a different place for comparison.
