The location of the property can’t be beat, as the hotel is located directly on the beach. The property itself was just a bit dated and could have used a refresh. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The pool area and the outdoor lounge space with fire pits was nice. The furniture around the fire pits was a bit worn and dirty.

Highly recommended stay! The room was a fantastic size and included a fridge, which was perfect for keeping our drinks and water cold. We loved the heated pool and the convenience of walking right out to the ocean, where chairs and umbrellas were already set up for us. The staff was absolutely amazing, and the food at the hotel restaurant was great. It is also within walking distance of several local spots for food and drinks. I will definitely be coming back!

Perfect location. Staff was unfortunately less than helpful. Needed to call 4x for basic room refresh that should happen every day automatically. Was not told of beach towel and chair service at check. Only found out about it on day 3 of 3 day stay. Would have appreciated a lot more kindness given the price of each night's stay for my family.
