Property is beautiful and nicely located near the ocean. Reception was so kind and easy to work with, very accommodating. We had a great time the evening we were there - got great drinks at the bar and had great conversation with other guests. Highly recommend! Only issue we came across was the slow-draining shower. Otherwise, a nearly perfect stay for a great price.

There were ants all over our room- all over the floor, climbing the walls and even in our beds. The floor looked like it hasn’t been washed in months and the toilet seat was falling off. It was the bartender that checked us in when we arrived and knew next to nothing about our reservation. No restaurant on the premises, only bar food which closes at 8:00. It could be a great place but didn’t measure up to the reviews

Love this place

Loved this hotel! Gorgeous decor and the comfiest biggest bed ever. So close to the beach with the most beautiful sunsets. Lots of restaurants close by and great coffee provided in the room. Only comment is I didn’t realise we had to leave a sign on the door otherwise they don’t clean the room (I didn’t see any communication about this) however they gave us new towels straight away when asked.
