"The studio was thoughtfully appointed, but could use some updates. Lots of extension cords! There were lots of property fees ( check in fee, parking, resort fees) that we weren’t completely prepared for. The resort is fun, lots of activities and lovely location, but because it is on a bluff over the beach - there are lots of hills to negotiate. The views are fantastic, and the hills are worth it - but just be prepared to walk uphill."
