Everything it's a beautiful very nice hotel . The beds are comfy the restaurant is delicious. Loved our stay already booked our next stay . The AC wouldn't go no.lower then 66 and room temp.kept reading 68 . I like it cold at least 62. Degrees. It kept cutting off so made my sleep terrible. But I'll bring a fan the next stay

The main areas downstairs were very nice, well‑decorated, and clean. Breakfast at the restaurant was tasty but pricey—$50 for two people, whereas a normal spot might cost $30 for the same portion. The outdoor spaces were lovely, with plenty of shower areas to rinse off after the beach, a pool that wasn’t crowded, an outdoor bar, lots of seating, a kids’ playground, and a hot tub. The beach itself was spacious and never crowded, even in August, with plenty of room all day. The room was decent but not spectacular; the beds were older spring mattresses, and the furnishings had a popcorn finish everywhere. There was no bathtub, only a walk‑in shower, so keep that in mind if you have small children. The room felt a bit tight and dated for the nightly rate, but it was very clean and the view was amazing. The price per night felt high for what you get, parking costs $20 a day, and the restaurant prices are also steep, especially for breakfast.

We couldn’t sleep last night because loud music from outside speakers kept us up; we asked the hotel to turn them off, but they couldn’t because the speaker was broken.

The staff were friendly, the view was great, and the restaurant food was good. I was upset by the surprise $150 parking charge when we arrived, and parking was limited, so I had to fight to find a spot that I had to pay for.

We liked the location, the pool, and the staff, but the room—especially the shower—could have been cleaner.
