From the moment you walk into the lobby, you are in awe of the ocean view and tranquil decorations that greet you. The staff was so friendly, accommodating and stived to make your stay perfect! The bar in the LARGE pool area was great to have for poolside drinks and food. The staff at the pool was attending to your every need. The chairs at beachside were comfortable and clean and so peaceful. The rooms were spotless with a lot of space, comfy beds and huge, modern bathrooms! This was a gem of a find and we will definitely be back!!!
