This resort is amazing! The facilities such as the restaurants, bars, pool, lounge areas are the best! Very clean and the rooms were large and comfy and quiet. You can hike down to the beach and there is a fun cliffhanger bar overlooking the ocean just a 10 min walk away. It was fun to walk through campus and the town is a short drive away. Highly recommend!
