I loved how the property was located within walking distance to restaurants, the public beach, and other shops. It was well maintained and the entire staff was friendly and helpful! The private beach area felt secluded and was completely adorable. I was not crazy about my room being accessible from the outside. However, I felt completely safe there.

I love this hotel. The only thing I would change is…. the non-stop music that plays over the speaker outside! You can’t enjoy a nice evening or a quiet morning on the beach due to the loud non-stop music! Don’t get me wrong I love music, but it’s just constant and a bit much!

Employees made my stay. Everyone was helpful and quickly to accommodate our needs. One small issue and it was taking care of quickly. Only complaint I had was some of the visitors were letting their dogs potty in the grass at the Bay Area and not clean it.

Great place to stay and family friendly but air conditioner was extremely loud. There was very little water pressure in the sink and the toilet was slow to flush. The staff were extremely accommodating

Decent

The stairs need some paintwork as well as some other places. Breakfast was decent but starts later at 7:30am. It was a mad rush of people. Smaller pool but was good for the price during summer season.
