Staff was very nice, but the photos of the room were very deceiving. The room was significantly smaller than shown in photos. It showed a small dining table and chairs, a sofa and a large counter space but our room didn’t have any of those things.

My stay was mostly good. The room was clean, the staff were friendly. I enjoyed the view. The only drawback, which might not be anyone's fault, was it took 2 calls and a visit with the front desk (about 30 to 45 min from first call) to get the toilet repaired.

Beautiful Property. Rooms were very clean. Lobby was well run and staff was excellent. Complementary coffee station in the lobby was such a win. Our only drawback was with the layout of the room we had an oceanfront suite, and when you walk in the bed is right at the door. Also no standard real closet. Overall excellent hotel and location.
