The staff was so helpful. When we dropped a bottle of wine and it broke on the floor, the front desk cleaned it up and sent us another bottle of wine to our room with a very nice note. When we had to move to another room, they were very understanding and moved us immediately. Great personal service. The beach view was incredible.

Not crowded. Easy to "social distance" on this beach. Grateful we were in a city where they let people peacefully sit on the beach.
