Our balcony is the perfect quiet retreat to take in the bay and there are lots of other places at the Inn to sit and admire it. The staff is very gracious and welcoming!

Reserve now! Me and my husband loved it we have no complains. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT! The staff were so friendly especially the lady at the winery room. We stayed at the bay view suite and it was such a AMAZING BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE. We did the boat ride as well and the man that assisted us was so friendly and instructed us so well how to drive the boat.
