The room was amazing!! We felt very comfortable there and the breakfast was great too. The restaurant attached to the hotel was delicious and had such a wonderful atmosphere and an array of food!! We really enjoyed our stay there and we would recommend it to everyone!!
Room was clean. Pool area was nice. Breakfast was ok... nothing to write home for, but did the job. Restaurant was great! Price was great. We will stay here again.
The room was beautiful! There are minor repairs that you can tell need a little extra love, but overall we were soo pleased! The bed was comfortable, the view was nothing less than amazing! I can honestly say that every member of staff we came across were so welcoming and pleasant. We've started our new tradition and are pleased we've found the perfect place to execute it.

Room was nice and clean. Right off the water, and close to everything we needed. Indoor pool was a nice addition.
The room and the staff were amazing.
It was a bit of an inconvenience not to have the front door unlocked overnight as my grandson had an emergency room visit, but we were able to get in the side door. That would be the only thing we would have changed.
It was so much fun! We will stay again.
Front desk staff was very friendly, and it was clean. The room was very clean and the bed was super comfy, fireplace worked great, the shower had a lot of pressure and hot water.
