The property was in a good area, close enough to walk to do activities or food, easy transportation on Island Explorer. Very clean and friendly staff. It would be nice to have better food options at the property as Looking Glass is only open until 2. Other than that we enjoyed our time.

Great living spaces that could be separated off, great view of the ocean, the great room was a comfortable place to relax after dinner (in town). The only negative was the lack of on site dinner dining, and the associated breakfast restaurant being closed during part of the week.
