Awesome place to stay
The accommodations were exactly as expected. The views were amazing. We needed a place to stay for my father’s funeral and they were so attentive to our needs. If you are looking for a quiet charming waterfront place to stay with all the amenities, and the great communication then this is it. Imagine waking up with the sunrise across the water!!!
