Good stay a few set backs
The room was great, staff were amazing. Walls were not sound proof. I woke up at 4:30am due to the people above me walking around with shoes on. From what I could hear they had a sick child. The man next-door made a phone call and we could hear the entire conversation like he was in the room.

This was a good value. It was convenient to the beach and was in a good location to find some dining options. They also had bikes on-site that could be rented for a low fee. Desk staff were very kind and helpful. Thanks for a nice weekend getaway!

It was a home away from home. The staff was so friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We were the guest of the day which started it off as a fun experience as soon as we received the text hours before check-in. The staff, location, and amenities made this an excellent vacation and we cannot wait to return!!

We were just here one night but we were quite impressed how they have updated this property . The rooms are modern and clean, and the pool area was a great place to relax. We really appreciated that the hotel provided beach chairs and we were able to walk down to the beach and enjoy the sunset.
