This property was absolutely beautiful, the room was incredibly clean, and everything was perfect. The whole experience was relaxing and the prefect setup for a work trip. I loved staying here and will 100% do it again. The coffee shop/restaurant that is in the same building is delightful. I had to extend my stay for a night and since the room wasn't booked all it took was a simple email. Can't recommend this place enough!!!

Beautiful hotel in a beautiful island

Beautiful place! Love the interior and the clean huge bathroom with nice washer and dryer. They even had detergent for us. We walked a few blocks to the beach and the neighbors houses were also very pretty too. Nice hotel we would definitely stay there again if we visit the island in the future!
