Fabulous romantic vacation

It was a beautiful honeymoon stay! The room looked out over the ocean while still having the shoreline to our right side. Waves crashed making the most relaxing sounds. A little pricey but it was well worth spending it this one time. So much so, that we’re talking of making it an annual trip on our anniversary. Staff was magnificent! The young lady (Beth?) gave us a list of recommended restaurants nearby. They have a free continental breakfast where you pick items off a list, hang it on the door and have it delivered at your preferred time! The list seems basic, but it actually wasn’t bad. I definitely recommend this place.
