The property is beautiful and the beach access is fantastic. We did the Dip and Dine package at the Grotto Spa as well which was lovely. Our room was in the Jedidiah rooms (studio with a kitchenette)—it was nice but unfortunately couldn't sleep well either due to the bed or lack of AC (warm sleeper). Overall great stay though!

I like the forested surroundings and the accessibility to the sandy beautiful beach. We were on the first floor and unfortunately we could hear the guests above us walking on the floor and moving the kitchen chairs. Also, it was quite loud when the cleaning staff were cleaning the unit above us.
