The staff is wonderful. They are friendly and very helpful. The rooms are cute and clean. It’s fairly quiet at night. The property is 1 block from the beach and walking distance to other popular areas. Breakfast was simple. The fresh fruit was the highlight for me.

The room was spotless. The staff were very kind and interested in making our experience the best it could be. The breakfast was delicious and we could see monkeys in the trees while having our morning coffee. The view from the room was a bit obscured but we were so close to the beach it didn't matter. Great to have deals at local restaurants as well. We had a great stay!
