Our stay was excellent; the facilities and staff were very welcoming. The only suggestion I would make is to include fresh seafood options on the menu—such as ceviche, for example—but otherwise, everything was fantastic.

The staff went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs. We had a beautiful panoramic room, and it was lovely to wake up every morning to the sunrise. Only issue is needing lounge chairs at the pool area too! We will definitely be returning

The staff went above and beyond for us during our stay. I wanted to recognize Emil and Shanae especially for accommodating our request during our stay. They genuinely care about their guests and go above and beyond. We had a beautiful suite with a view of the ocean. The beach access was wonderful and having service on the beach was great. Highly recommend this place.

Nice rooms with kitchenettes. Friendly and helpful staff. Convenient parking in front of property. Great location on the beach and near downtown. Liked the pool and private beach. Only downside was that you had to pay a daily rate to use beach lounge chairs and umbrellas and there were no lounge chairs or umbrellas by the pool.
