The room was very clean, especially the glass doors and large window looking out on the beautiful ocean view. The continental breakfast was a little better than average, the staff competent and friendly. The TV was confusing but someone came over right away and showed us how to use it. It was great to be able to just walk across the road to a good restaurant. We will definitely plan on coming back.

We stayed in a beachfront 1st floor king bed suite. It was clean and beautiful. Neighbors were quiet. Heat worked great and even though we went in offseason it was still beautiful to walk the beach. Check in and out was easy. Breakfast included was good. If I had any recommendations it would be for them to have scrambled eggs as an option for breakfast. They have hard boiled eggs but they needed to be microwaved because I don’t eat them cold. Otherwise it was microwave breakfast sandwiches (I also don’t eat).

The staff was very helpful,sending someone to fix the tv and helping us with passes to the Y. Breakfast was okay, heavy with high calorie items but there was some fruit and hard boiled eggs. The room was very clean and was serviced daily. The view from our third floor room of the ocean was lovely. While there were no open eating places within walking distance, it was close to numerous dining spots.

This place was great we stayed in a king room with kitchenette (2 burner, large fridge, microwave). It had a little dinning table for 3 and spacious bathroom. Everything was clean and the turquoise color was fun. Being right on the beach was great and they have a really nice gazebo/sitting area with lots of different kinds seating to enjoy the ocean view. The staff was very friendly and the continental breakfast area was super clean and well stocked and nice. I was really impressed. Don't expect a fancy buffet of course but it definitely exceeded my expectations. My 3 year old loved the playground and it was right outside our room. Super convenient. We ate at plaza aztecha for dinner which was great and good service if you want Mexican. Only cons was I wish there had been a can opener in the kitchenette and a sponge and small thing of dish soap. Not a big deal but It's usually provided at other places I've stayed with a kitchenette. Also bring paper plates and bowls that is not provided as well. However they do provide paper towels, pots pans skillet and cooking utensils. Convenient location near lots of stores if you forget something- Publix, Target, TJ Maxx, etc. Great place for a great price! I would recommend and stay again
