"The wonderful valet parking service and modern stylish stunning architecture immediately impressed us when we drove in the hotel lobby! The online check in was easy and just walked to the reception collected the key with champagne as refreshments. Being Expedia Platinum member and this hotel is under VIP access, we got a surprise upgrade to ocean view with balcony! Each room comes with exclusive bottle waters, wine, sodas, popcorn, salt water taffy, coffee and tea complimentary. The pool is heated overlooking the ocean with lounge chairs is a great place to chill and relax. We love the in room breakfast service and everything about this hotel! A great birthday weekend! Hope they have the loyalty program soon! We will definitely come again as this is our 2nd time visiting. "
