The location is great and the view is what we wanted. On site parking for a flat rate which was nice. The walls are very thin and the people next to us were very loud and it kept us up all night.

It was nice to have the double king room, we had two separate bedrooms. We spent time at the fire pit and patio and it was right across from the volleyball courts. Although our room wasn’t ready we were able to leave the car which was nice. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

The beach view and the patio was exceptional, the room could use a face lift. More shelving in the bathroom and real stitching on the curtains instead of staples:) when someone spends 500$ a night there is a higher expectation. Overall the location and the views will sell these rooms every day for the year. We had a great time here.
