Room was clean; staff was extremely helpful and friendly! Breakfast options were plentiful and well-stocked throughout the morning.
We visited just after peak season, but staff was very helpful in aiding us to secure beach chairs and umbrella from the local purveyor.

Our check-in was easy, but we’re not offered the WiFi procedure. Breakfast was as expected. Room was super comfy and view was unforgettable! Sad that there was no option for taking chairs to the beach. Would stay here again!

The staff was amazing. Breakfast choices were great but wish there were more waffle irons. We had a king bedroom and the bed was stiff and pillows were flat. All and all, we had a nice time
