Relaxing beach stay

Great location and awesome beach views. I love the cut out areas of the balcony for a better view. Breakfast was really good. Coffee was the best hotel coffee I’ve ever had. Machine ground the beans, and it was served super hot. Even after all the creamer I add, it was still almost too hot to drink, PERFECT! Staff was friendly and helpful. I love the “borrow bin” where you can give and take chairs, floats, etc for the beach. The only negative to the hotel is the low water pressure. It makes it hard to wash long hair. Otherwise, we would definitely stay again. This was our 3rd time here.
