A beautiful get away to have the ocean a few steps away from your room. A few things , upon arrival service was good. The room was nice , comfortable, loved that I was able to hear the ocean at night so would put me at a peaceful sleep. The lantern room is so good! Love when a hotel has a restaurant in it ! As I needed to check out it went smoothly , unfortunately the front desk never asked how my stay was since I was ready to let her know that the light in my room never worked and had to use the bathroom light n tv . But overall I’d come back.
$25 complementary wine card for the self serve wine bar! $12.50 a glass . Perfect to enjoy the sunset
They turn on the fire pits in the evening . Perfect for sunset views

You’re paying for the area. Beach access is nice! Fire is nice but you can only have it certain hours which make it busy. Few areas ran down like deck by pool (almost died) lol extra charges at check in. Pay through the websit on Expedia … when you leave they hit more charges

when we booked online at hotels.com, it was advertised as fully refundable or partially refundable if short notice of cancellation. It was neither. Had to pay for the full stay despite this false advertising. Neither the property or hotels.com honored this.

Property has been updated and the lobby is a great spot to sit and look at the ocean. The room we stayed in had ants (staff did come and spray) and the toilet leaked around the base. Overall the location is the best characteristic of the hotel.
