Extremely friendly front desk staff. Great location close to the beach and wonderful restaurants. The property is currently under construction, but it didn’t impact our good time. Highly recommend staying here.

We loved the modern room and helpful staff that helped us choose an appropriate room. We think the property would be improved with a small fitness room or gym access soon. Of course a hot tub is always nice but the outdoor pool area is quite nice. Be careful about preserving the space.
