Everything about this stay was fantastic, the only downside of our stay was that we only booked for a couple of nights. The staff were all so sweet and the area is fantastic. I am almost hesitant to leave this review because I want to keep this a secret, because we will absolutely be returning and for a longer stay next time!

Everything was excellent, but when I selected my room, I chose one that was a little more pricey because it was advertised as balcony with Ocean view
