Would Stay Again

I was very impressed with the property. It was clean, quiet, staff were friendly, and there was easy beach access. We had an amazing view from our balcony and, as we went in the winter, the heated pool was a nice touch.

Don't recommend, or hotels.com either

It was not that clean - lots of long hair in the shower. I did not get the kitchenette suite I thought I booked. I will probably not use hotels.com again. The staff were nice enough, but the room and the amenities suckdd. The so-called resort hotel had seen better days a long time ago. No ice machines. One of two outsoor elevators worked very sporadically. I will say the coffee served in the lobby was quite good, but only fake creamers available and only packaged muffins and granola bars for breakfast. The location was good, but I wouldn't go there again.
