The hotel is situated in a beautiful location right on the beach, making it a great spot for relaxing. While the service was outstanding and the staff was incredibly friendly, the rooms left something to be desired with outdated plumbing and no ocean view. The dining experience was a bit overpriced for what was offered, but overall, it provided good value for money considering the proximity to local attractions.
