Kathy

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I loved the view, the atmosphere, the music they played at the pool, the service. I will definitely be back. The only negative to me was the balconies were so close together. It ended up not being a problem for me but if other people would have been out it would have felt uncomfortable. Also, I did not feel there were as many channel options as I would have liked. These are only slight negatives. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and if I could have afforded it, I would have stayed longer. my balcony overlooked the boats and I could see the water. I never left the hotel to even go to the beach. It was peaceful and I felt very safe.
