Delightful stay. Great views, the pool and hot tub were beautiful and a must do they are both heated so perfect for the winter too. The cove is just down the steps and great for mini adventures. The breakfast was nice, hot and cold options. The rooms were clean and each has a little balcony view.

This was our second time to stay at this beautiful place. The Staff, the cleanliness, and the breakfast are consistently very good, it says that it’s a continental breakfast, but actually, it includes eggs, sausage, biscuits, and gravy, and other hot foods. A very good selection.
