I had a comfortable stay at the hotel with its spacious and well-outfitted rooms featuring a kitchenette, fireplace, and spa tub, although the room decor was just average. The service was top-notch, especially with attentive staff like Lindsey who didn't miss a single detail. The location was ideal, just a short stroll from the beach and main shopping areas. The dining options were limited to pre-packaged items, but the freshly prepared salads were a nice touch.
