The pool area gets very slippery, I slipped and fell while coming out of the pool and busted my leg open to the white meat. Most of staff at the hotel knew and no one really helped or checked up on me.

The hotel scent was amazing. I was told by the hotel staff the scent was inspired by the owner’s favorite things and created specifically for the hotel. The scent was on the vents so you smelled it even before you step into the hotel. We wish the scent was available for purchase. This is an exceptional property. It is meticulously clean and kept up. The staff is 10/10. The roof top soaking pool has a fabulous view of the ocean. Grocery store and pharmacy just around the corner! Super convenient. The Hotel is just like the pictures on the website but better in person. I would recommend the hotel and would book here again.

I’ll recommend this place to anyone. The ambience of the place was special, tentative staff, great rooms. I didn’t get to try out all of their extra stuff cause I had other plans but they have it all. A pool, a bar, a gym. Felt like a resort almost. And the best part is they are worth the price. I hope I made some one make an easy decision on their stay.
