Love when hotels have a clothes line in the tub for wet suits. Even though the weather was rainy we still enjoyed the hot tub and pool and once it cleared up the Tiki Bar.

I informed the front desk of a problem with the t v remote and a broken hair dryer on the first morning. Nothing was done to correct either during my stay. The check out clerk did give me a small discount for my trouble. The restaurant meal was excellent.
