Room was clean, however it is tired. The coffee table was coming apart at the seams, the towel rack kept falling off the wall and the hair dryer sounded like it was dying. However, the bed was comfortable, and we had a balcony with a beautiful view across the golf course out to the ocean, and lovely sunsets. Front desk staff and in fact all the staff we met were very nice and helpful. Washer and dryer available for hotel guests.

Rooms have an amazing view however they could be better. There was no aircon in the bedroom and it became super hot & stuffy for us. We had the aircon in the living room running at full blast to cool down the whole room. Also the heatwave did not help. Otherwise the hotel, staff and service is great. Room service came super quick and food was excellent. Please have aircon in the bedroom. Really difficult during summer to stay otherwise.
