Good breakfast next door at sister hotel lounge. Enjoyed waterside room. Sunsets too! Felt COVID ‘safe’ because of extra cleaning and disinfecting protocol. Could detail vacuum more. Have made several trips there. Am a local, Love it there! I find it quite peaceful. TV selection is good with Premiere channels. Soaker tub a must do.
