Excellent spot with all you need

Very comfortable, clean, and quiet spot. Originally planned only one night but extended for 2nd. Reception ensured we got best rate. All the amenities included for a short or long stay. Close to a number of eateries and a short drive to the beach. One of the nicest spots we have stayed on our trip and excellent value for money.
