I came for Valentine's Day weekend. They had towels made like a heart with rose petals and champagne The room was ocean view and it was beautiful. The parking space was close to the room, didn't have to walk far. The room was clean, the staff awesome and breakfast was full stock. This hotel was right in the middle of Everything, as far as shopping and entertainment. Down side we came when most parks and some restaurants were close until the summer. My husband and I had awesome time but come back in the summer.
