Hotel has been updated nicely. We were hoping for more than a partial ocean view and hoping to hear waves. That was not the case.

The room charges were on the higher side but the experience in the room wasnt that great. It was ocean facing room so that is great however we were put in level 1 anyone walking on level 2 could be heard below. It was quite disturbing. For the money we paid we expected better.

This was a surprise. It was so nice. While there is a busy highway nearby, I barely noticed it. Beautiful, picturesque surroundings. The pool and hot tub are nice. Breakfast was plentiful. I thought it was great!

Beautiful grounds and breathtaking view!!! Loved the pool, hot tub and our room. The bed was a little too hard, but staff put on a mattress topper for us. Could’ve used another topper, but we didn’t tell them so it’s our own bad for not saying something. Nice and accommodating staff. Complimentary breakfast was good. Love the waffle makers, scrambled eggs, sausage links and coffee. It was a perfect vacation for us and we’ll be back!
