The property was good overall. The beach is beautiful and we loved that there was food and beverage service right on the beach! It is a very walkable area with lots of dining and shopping options. The staff were very friendly although the housekeeping in our room was a lacking. Also, it is an older hotel that is getting a "refresh" this summer which will definitely improve the look of the hotel.

Loved our stay at this property. We got an upgrade but hard to say if it was worth it as we paid for added parking that we didn’t use and room was not exactly what I expected. Staff was excellent and beach bar was great!
