We liked the beach access and how great of a spot this was to see the sunrise. A short walk to a nice beach that was very protected and safe for kids to swim was such a great part of our trip. The on site restaurant with live music made the evenings memorable. My only bummer was the tricky parking and no on site gym. Thankfully Valet parking made things simple when parking for the huge jeep was limited.

The rooms and bathrooms were very clean. I enjoy that you have a market next door and a few dining options. Very safe and a great location. It has a nice restaurant with live music at night. The price I would say if fair. The only negative is that the rooms are a bit noisy and the pool needs better upkeep.
