Everything we hoped for.

Near the beach. Near restaurants. Well kept. Secure. Near a bank. Lots of solicitations on the beach to buy local merchandise. Beautiful beach. Easy to get a chair and sombrero at the beach. Not too crowded.

Extremely Happy

The Suite has been renovated. Beautiful. We hung out on the balcony quite a bit because our friend from the area had a dog who was not allowed inside. The beach it literally a few steps away and the the apartment security is top notch. We loved it and will return again. I live a few miles away and wanted the beach because I had company visiting. Perfect. Air wasn’t working but they supplied us with a fan. Offered to move us but we said no because we loved the space and the balcony

Convenient hotel near beach and restaurants.

This apartment hotel is very close to the beach and many restaurants, on the same block as the beach strip. It has a large main room with great AC and a comfortable bed. However, no sign outside the small office makes it hard to find when checking in! It is not obvious from the address how to find it. The manager is friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the bathroom had mildew and the dresser drawers were coming apart. So while it was a comfortable stay the apartment is a bit run-down and I can't give it an excellent rating.
