We liked the property because it was along the beach. Every morning and evening we walked the beach. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Any questions we asked they were eager to answer our questions. We had breakfast at the buffet which was very good. We found the hotel to be very clean.

Our room was spacious and functional. Lots of room for storage, I liked the magnification mirror in the bathroom. A Keurig coffee maker was in the room and the staff always left coffee pods for us, nice refrigerator. Maybe would have liked a microwave, but not a big deal. I would definitely recommend staying here the area and bike/walking paths are beautiful!

Housekeeping was exceptional; the team was incredibly friendly and ensured that everything was kept impeccably clean. The front desk staff were extremely helpful and went out of their way to make our stay extra special. I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a perfect getaway.

Rooms were clean and very well equipped. King size bed and linens were comfortable. Plenty of pillows. The towels were thick and the shampoo and lotions were nice. The bar restaurant food was very good and reasonably priced for a hotel. The pool area has plenty of comfortable, loungers and seating areas. Hot tub needs an upgrade but was told that is happening this fall. Beautiful walk to the beach, great access. Definitely return.
