The lobby area is very well done the rest of the facility needs attention to details. Outside patio spaces very dirty and unkept. Weather conditions during our stay did not allow for the pool however the sauna area seemed to be unkept and we were told it wasn’t completed however I imagine it was due to maintenance issues. Water pressure was limited in shower. Overall the price $$$ didn’t match the experience and the $45 per day plus tax seemed outrageous for parking. The bar not being open until 3:00 limited arriving guest from relaxing and enjoying a glass of wine from the wine tap which was also not available until after 3:00.

Loved everything about our trip. However, our room was under the bar and lounge area. When someone moved a chair or stool, ( sometimes after 3:00 am, it made enough noise to wake us. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was charming. We had a great stay overall!

A beautiful get away to have the ocean a few steps away from your room. A few things , upon arrival service was good. The room was nice , comfortable, loved that I was able to hear the ocean at night so would put me at a peaceful sleep. The lantern room is so good! Love when a hotel has a restaurant in it ! As I needed to check out it went smoothly , unfortunately the front desk never asked how my stay was since I was ready to let her know that the light in my room never worked and had to use the bathroom light n tv . But overall I’d come back.
$25 complementary wine card for the self serve wine bar! $12.50 a glass . Perfect to enjoy the sunset
They turn on the fire pits in the evening . Perfect for sunset views

You’re paying for the area. Beach access is nice! Fire is nice but you can only have it certain hours which make it busy. Few areas ran down like deck by pool (almost died) lol extra charges at check in. Pay through the websit on Expedia … when you leave they hit more charges
