We enjoyed a very clean room with an awesome shower. The balcony view of the beach was exactly what we hoped it would be. Direct access to the beach, a nice pool, with lounge chairs. A couple bbq grills and a covered area to retreat from the sun while taking in the ocean. All staff were friendly and accommodating. Most bang for the buck!

Didn't like the bathroom mirror in room 102. Too low. Bathroom faucet splashed water when facing it. The television was a problem getting it to turn on without un plugging it and putting the plug in. Don't know what cable provider they had but it was terrible. It wouldn't show the info of the channels.
