I always appreciate when a facility can accommodate an early check-in if it's the off-season and has the availability. Although not typically ideal beach conditions given the cold weather, the access to the sand and water and beautiful views were spectacular. Glad I could scout the location for potential future planning.

The property is very unique, in that it has several wings to the hotel, which enclosed an area that was filled with amenities and fun things to do. These include 2 pools, 3 bars, including the only swim up bar in the area, and 3 restaurants. There were several areas for lounging and a beautiful beach! I hope to return soon to take full advantage of the property, since it was quite cold for the area while we were there and due to ice and snow some areas were closed.

Enjoyed the surroundings, and the ocean front was fabulous. Unfortunately there is no place to store your clothes (no closet or dresser) and housekeeping was spotty. All in all the restaurant staff were wonderful and I’d stay there again.
