Hotel Location
Guest Reviews & Ratings
I had a great time staying at the hotel. The rooms were large and clean with the softest bedding and mattress. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the spa services were excellent. However, the rooms are a bit dated and worn. The good view from the rooms was a bonus.
The hotel offered neat and spacious rooms with a remarkably comfortable stay. The facilities included all the essentials, like an iPhone/iPad dock, a coffee machine, and a kettle, but the kitchen area was notably small. The service was attentive, hospitable, and accommodating, with a setback being the early closure time on weekdays. The location was ideal for relaxation, offering stunning ocean views and convenient access to shopping, dining, and beach activities. Dining was enjoyable overall, albeit with occasional service hiccups. The hotel's facilities were well-equipped and maintained, providing a satisfying stay overall.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms. The service from the staff was incredibly attentive, especially Richard & Anthony. The location is ideal for enjoying the beach and the surrounding area. Dining options were excellent despite some minor service issues. The facilities are well-maintained.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The room was awesome, with a large bath, a fabulous king-size bed, luxurious linens, a separate sitting area, and a balcony with a panoramic view of the ocean and the inter-coastal. The service was friendly and helpful; Richard & Anthony, along with the rest of the staff, ensured we had a great experience during our 3-day stay. The location was fantastic for walking around, enjoying the beach, and exploring the nearby restaurants. The dining experience was excellent, although a bit expensive. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
