Construction going on was loud during the day, so it wasn't ideal but not too annoying. Balcony was big and ha good seating but ocean view was limited. Included breakfast was outstanding.

The hotel was everything we hope for and more. The staff was extremely friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. The room was clean and extremely enjoyed the balcony. Providing beach chairs was an excellent amenity. I look forward to returning to the hotel on our next stay.

Nice property and enjoyed our stay up until my wife’s necklace was forgotten in the room. They claimed not to be able to find it. Definitely our fault for leaving it, but low morales of staff to steal it.
