"We had such a great little getaway! The location was perfect — close to the beach and all the nice restaurants, which made everything super convenient. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly what we needed for a relaxing stay. The lady who was cleaning was so kind and helpful during check-in, which made us feel very welcome. It was me, my daughter, and two of her friends, and we all had the best time. Highly recommend!"
"Loved staying at this hotel! I was hesitant because it wasn’t on the beach but they have a shuttle that takes you straight to their beach location with a great pool! Staff was incredibly friendly "
