    Very relaxing

    Room was great. Location was wonderful. Staff was super. Very polite. Would definitely stay there again. We didn't have a car but the hotel was close to several gift shops. Breakfast was included and the best breakfast I have ever seen in a hotel.

    Great experience.

    Loved the heated pool and the breakfast! Employees are very friendly and helpful. Super clean place overall. There was always someone cleaning the entrance to the pool and beach. The rooms are nice sized. Beds not quite as plush as some other hotels I've stayed at.

    Perfect!

    This was my first trip by myself and my teen age daughters and it was absolutely amazing! Clean, friendly, safe, relaxing and simply perfect. Literally didn’t have to leave the resort with the live music, beach and sports bars all there. Definitely will be coming back here!

    Beautiful pet friendly place

    Excellent location, right on the beach. The staff are really great here, we brought our boxer with us and they were so nice to her. Not all pet friendly locations actually deliver on that policy but this place truly was pet friendly. Breakfast included and very tasty.
