We had a wonderful stay at this hotel located right on the beachfront. The facilities were spotless, with a level of cleanliness that made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. The service was exceptional; the staff was always friendly and eager to assist with a smile.One of the things we enjoyed the most was the variety of food available. Every meal was a feast of flavors, with options to suit every taste. In the afternoons, the hotel offered free ice cream, which was a lovely touch. They also handed out water guns for both kids and adults, allowing us to enjoy an afternoon full of fun and laughter as a family.The beach in this area is unparalleled: clean, serene, and not very crowded, making it perfect for relaxing and spending quality time with family without any worries. In summary, our stay was spectacular, and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an unforgettable beach vacation.

We really enjoyed our stay and LOVED that our room had a patio that opened up right onto the beach! The only thing I would recommend the hotel change with that, is to NOT place lounge chairs right in front of beach front rooms! Nobody wants to have strangers laying/hanging out right out their patio door. The hotel was getting ready to start renovations on the property so it was a bit disorganized. But overall, we loved the place and would stay there again. Look forward to see what the place looks like when the renovations are complete.

Don’t leave your stuff on the seats by the pool, while swimming. My son’s cell phone was stolen and a lady’s sun screen was stolen at this property. No employee helped me look for his phone, they didn’t seem to care.
