I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the grounds are beautiful and the outdoor areas are lovely, the room configuration was frustrating, and I was disappointed with the lack of housekeeping during my stay. The dining options were decent, but the pricing felt a bit steep for what we received. Overall, I'd consider returning for a different experience but definitely would choose a less costly room next time.

I spent a lovely three days at this hotel for work, and overall, it was a great experience. The location is fantastic with the pool right next to the ocean, and the staff was incredibly cheerful and helpful during my entire stay. While I found my room spacious, it could use some updates, especially in the bathroom. The dining experience was enjoyable, but the service was a bit slow during peak times. I would definitely return, but I would appreciate some improvements in room maintenance.

My experience at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The overall environment was beautiful and ideal for relaxing, making it a great choice for a waterfront getaway. However, I found the rooms to be somewhat run-down and lacking in maintenance. The service was friendly, but at times overwhelmed, which affected the overall experience. While there are plenty of activities nearby, the dining options could definitely use some improvement.
