Fantastic overnight stay!
The staff was exceptional! From the front desk, to maintenence, to the servers and staff working the breakfast buffet... they were friendly, smiling, engaging, and kind. My sister and I noticed how wonderful they all were! I'd return in a heartbeat. Beautiful property on the beach. Our pizza and breakfast buffet food was all delicious.

Disappointed with hotel
Restaurant only served breakfast and pizza
Bar drinks are over price and was only open out doors and the windy condition made it cold and miserable. The partial view was of beach and highway. This should had been advertised better on hotels.com

Clean, comfortable and convenient. The staff were amazing. The view from the lobby was breathtaking. Access to the beach was a little tricky, as you had to go through the pool area. Overall I’d stay again!
