Great place for family or couples trip.

This is the best price you can get for how close it is to the beach. The beach is right across the street. Plus they have a little private beach right beside the pool. The rooms are cute and clean with a nice sized mini fridge. The staff is friendly and there are elevators. They also have rentals available which is really nice.
