The staff was absolutely phenomenal. Every single one of them!! And the hotel was great. They are in the middle of getting renovated and made sure the noise wasn’t a problem for us. It just means it will be even better when we come back to visit. I have no complaints and loved everything. Can’t wait to return when the outdoor pool is open in season. Thank you for allowing us to stay with you guys! It made our little getaway that much better knowing we were in an amazing place to stay with no worries at all. We will be back ♥️

The place was clean. Right on the beach. They were remodeling, that’s why I rated it 4 out of 5. The check-in process was quick with the service being friendly and helpful. We needed help with the TV, and they sent someone right away.
