It’s a nice looking place and it’s good to be right on the beach. BUT, the walls are very thin and you can hear every voice and every noise on the entire floor. When the shower in the next room was being used it sounded like it was in my own room it was so loud. Also, the bed was very uncomfortable. My neck and shoulders are killing me after two nights sleeping in that bed. The view and the beach is nice, and it’s clean, but it’s nowhere near worth the more than $400 per night I paid. I don’t recommend staying there and I would never stay there again.

Came back after being out for the day and our keys would not work on our door. Had to end up moving to another room, and once there, every time the room above us turned on the shower or tub, the running water was so loud you couldn’t sleep.

We had an excellent 3-night stay here. Very kid-friendly, our kids had a blast. Everything was so clean. Indoor pool was large and warm. The beach and view are beautiful. Clean towels provided at pool and beach area. Small tub of beach toys available for the kids to use. The staff were friendly and helpful! Free breakfast each morning was a nice touch with a large selection of food options and delicious coffee! We plan to be back!
