Property was really nice, clean, excellent use of space in the rooms. The beach was RIGHT THERE and the selection of restaurants just by walking up the street was great.

Amazing staff, nice location and beds that are well-above our expectations for comfort! Wife had "the best sleep of her life". Overall, a great stay. Room was smaller than expected, but that didn't take away from the experience.
