The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Lovely Ocean Views

I stayed in a room on the 9th floor, and the views of the beach and ocean were amazing! From the moment I stepped onto the balcony, the sound of the waves was soothing, making my stay feel like a luxurious escape.

Room Service Delight

The room service was impressively quick! On two occasions, my meal arrived within 15 minutes and was genuinely delicious. It felt good to have such convenient dining options right from my room.

Cozy and Spacious

The living area in my suite felt more like a cozy apartment than a hotel room. Having a private eat-in kitchen with an ocean view made my morning coffee feel like a five-star experience.

Fully Equipped Kitchen

I appreciated having a fully equipped kitchen in my suite, allowing for convenient meals. It was great to be able to cook fresh seafood for dinner after a day at the beach!

United States, January 2025

5.0/10

I had quite a disappointing experience at the hotel this time. While I appreciated the beach access and the view from our balcony, it was evident that the property needed significant updates and better attention to cleanliness. The service was inconsistent, and I often felt like I was an inconvenience rather than a guest. Overall, if you're considering staying here, it might be worth exploring other options first.

Rooms

5.0

The room appeared clean at first glance but was actually grimy, especially the floors which left my feet black. There were various maintenance issues, including a clogged bathtub and broken plugs.

Service

5.0

Service was lacking; I often felt ignored when trying to get assistance. Though a few staff members were kind, the overall experience left a lot to be desired.

Location

8.0

The hotel is situated right on the beach, which is a huge plus. However, it’s towards the end of the beach, making it a little less convenient if you're seeking a busier area.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were minimal, and I found the pool bar to be poorly stocked. The lack of cleanliness around the dining area was also concerning.

Facilities

5.0

Overall, the facilities felt outdated and not well-maintained, from the pool area to the public spaces.
