We had a really nice stay here! The staff kindly upgraded us to a larger room for free, which was a pleasant surprise. The room was clean, spacious, and well-equipped with all the amenities we needed, plus a beautiful coastal view right from the window. Breakfast was available for an extra fee — it was decent, though nothing particularly special. The only small downside was that the mattress was a bit firm for my liking, but otherwise everything was comfortable and quiet. Overall, a great experience and excellent value for the location. Would happily stay here again!

Overpriced. There was no option for dining and if you wanted their continental breakfast, it was an additional $15 per person. Furniture in the room is outdated. There was green, indoor-outdoor carpet throughout. The grounds outside were well maintained, and the beach area was beautiful.
