Spectacular Views

We loved our stay at Up on the Rocks. It was very clean and comfortable. The view was spectacular and we enjoyed most of our time outside on the deck. The breeze is nice but we were definitely grateful for the AC in the bedrooms while we slept. It’s conveniently located to downtown and the road to all of the beaches. We loved our stay and would highly recommend!
