We enjoyed our stay very much. Great location. Friendly staff. Loved the pool by the beach. Good drinks and delicious food a the bar by the pool. A few of the negatives: Parking was limited. We had a room for 6 and there was only 1 towel hook in the bathroom. Our sliding glass door to the balcony was very difficult to open and close.

Bed was a bit soft. And bathroom floor flooded with each shower. Not sure why unless shower curtain too short allowing wwter to escape tub. And the shower gel container was empty when we checked in and was never replaced. Luckily we had brought our own. But these things were minor and didn’t really affect our stay. The complimentary breakfast is outstanding and staffed by friendly people who are careful to maintain cleanliness and keep area well stocked.

The beds were very uncomfortable and we were not able to check in until almost 2 hours after normal check in time. Since it was so late to check in we were told we wouldn’t get room service to clean the following day and with 3 kids and 2 adults staying in a room, we ran out of towels and pillows quickly and had to wait a second day for replenishments.

Great Time

My daughter and I took a trip to the beach for the weekend to relax. Our stay was great, the hotel is in walking distance to lots of great shopping and restaurants. The boardwalk and beach access was right in front of the hotel. The pool and bar was very relaxing. The staff was really nice and the breakfast was a treat every morning. I will be coming back to stay here again.
