Ocean view room and relaxing. Quiet room with a comfortable bed. We had a great time with our adult kids walking to the beach. About 30 minutes walk to the pier and 40 minutes to farmers market on the state street. Great view of the beach from the lobby and the pool.

As soon as we stepped into our ocean view room it was perfect!!! The layout is great, very spacious and comfortable. The front desk staff was amazing Max did a great job detailing everything about the property and Kevin with valet service was very helpful. I definitely recommend having some drinks at Cafe Lido and grabbing breakfast at Costa Kitchen. I will definitely be back soon! Thanks for everything.
