Staff was super friendly & check in was easy. There is a little store in the lobby if you forgot any essentials and plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. Best part was how quickly and easily you can access the beach. We will be back this again this summer!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff was lovely. The room was in a separate building that was a motel (door to the outside) which ended up being a bit of an ordeal. The room was obviously recently updated and clean. There were two dead roaches on the floor of the room but I didn't see any live ones. The bed was the most uncomfortable experience I've had in a long time. The ocean view was great and the beach was quiet.

They were renovating - so the "new" room was lovely - but the workers playing mariachi music all day and night (LOUDLY) was not lovely - and absolutely no wifi or cell service to speak of at all - had to go to the lobby of the OTHER (newer) building to even make a call to my work because in our room and even on the balcony - wifi was unstable and cell service was sketchy. Otherwise it was nice.. once construction is done and internet fixed it'd be great!
