I recommend a lounging area for guests other than the pool. There is one very small and outdated lobby, and there is one restaurant with a bar. There is nowhere else for guests to sit, relax, and enjoy the beautiful scenery and converse or read. For those in rooms facing the pool, while the terrace is large, the guests in the pool and restaurant are loud and staring right at you, zero guest privacy. Also the restaurant menu is too limited and specific to be the only dining option.

Nice hotel in a perfect location!
Very nice hotel across from the beach. Walking distance to restaurants! Great ambiance, friendly and attentive staff, large rooms with large bathrooms. Our deluxe king patio had a view of a back street that was very quiet and private. We preferred this to a pool view. The bed was comfortable. Only down side was no coffee maker in the room so we brought our own. Also no body wash that wasn't a big deal.

Nice place but missed small details.
My husband and I stayed here after our courthouse wedding ceremony. The room was big and we had booked an ocean view which was nice, but the hotel had missed that it was our wedding day. Other places I or any of my friends had stayed at would make sure to do something a little extra for such a special occasion but all in all a good stay!
