This hotel is absolutely lovely with an amazing pool and hot tub. I love everything about it from the proximity to the beach to the convenient little store inside. Excellent stay all around!
Room was very clean and spacious. It was a little noisy because of other guests during the night and cleaning crew. Indoor pool and jacuzzi were great. Had dinner there once and the food was delicious. Overall, it was a pleasant stay
Our stay was short but definitely we will return for more days.We enjoyed room,pool and short walking distance to the beach .Food at the restaurant was excellent.Definitely we recommend this property.

The staff was incredible, had a very large indoor pool since it was still off season for the outside pool. The rooms were clean but the air conditioners were extremely loud which made it hard to sleep. We had our rooms cleaned everyday with new towels without even having to be asked which was great. We would stay here again.
