The beds were comfortable. The pool and hot tub was awesome! Am coffee was tasty. Unfortunately we were on 2nd floor and we could hear the footsteps in the room above us and someone coughing. Made it hard to fall asleep but once I was asleep it was fine! Overall a good stay!! Food and beach in walking distance.
