10/10 Excellent
"We were met at the desk with a friendly staff person who let us know of local tours, the adjacent convenience store, and walked us to our room. The room was wonderful with a balcony. We enjoyed the breakfast, dinner, the pool and the game room with 2 pool tables. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We participated in the trivia night and listened to the Jimmy Buffet tribute band from the pool area. The hotel is only a few minutes' walk to the beach. A great place to stay!"
