Sorry to say the pool is a joke. The spa is there in a small cubby hole but completelyvoid of water. The restaurant/bar on the third floor should not even be advertised. The courtyard, lobby and rooms are nice.

The location and access to services my family needed was good. The breakfast staff and meal itself was very good. Getting our room cleaned and linens changed was a big challenge. Because of this, I will not return to this property.

Staff at check in was great. The room was decent, no frills and looked clean. There were some things I didn't care for: our body wash in bathroom was practically empty and ran out before our stay ended, no room service to clean/make up beds. Our room had a slow draining sink which I hate and our second room had issues with the sink draining at all. Would probably not stay here again.

Great spot best the beach for a family. Big rooms. Koi pond. Tiny pool and tiny hot tub that are separated in different parts of the hotel. Those could be cleaner, but they're still fun to use. Love the courtyard. Balconies are a nice treat.
