Awesome location, some furniture may seem to be outdated, but that probably add some charm to the place and definitely not something we could complain about and we actually liked that. Friendly staff, great views. We hope to visit again.

We lucked out and got a highly discounted stay in one of the rooftop suites. It was a 2-bedroom ocean and mountain view suite with full kitchen and 2 baths. Loved sitting on both decks (one always had sun) and bbqing our dinner. Great music from the bars next doors and fantastic views. Our kids had lots of fun (2yo and 5yo) and enjoyed the beach across the road.
