I called and was told there was a Keurig in my room so I bought some pumpkin spice coffee pods for my daughter and myself and there was only a boiling kettle and coffee teabags. Also, I think maybe a Nespresso (better quality) in the lobby Couldn’t find a decent cup of coffee on the whole property

The resort is truly a unique and amazing property. Located right on the private beach with amenities like nightly bonfires, bocce ball, pool w/ hot tub, spa and an amazing restaurant! The restaurant on property was so spectacular with an open grill and great ambiance and incredible menu. Staff is very attentive and friendly. You move about the property in gold cars with a driver, so fun! Rooms are clean and new - beautifully decorated with a fireplace and balcony. Highly recommend!

Perfect for time away from the city - catch up on sleep and finish that book! And all while listening to the sounds of the waves. We spent three lovely nights in an ocean view suite. The bed was so comfortable that we’re trying to purchase one for home! The staff was great and even made our cat feel welcome.
