Good times
Very close to all the action, beautiful and comfortable too! Loved having access to bikes and volleyballs. The upper hangout deck was super nice to hang with local family. The chairs and umbrella in the room was also nice to have for the beach.

Clean hotel great location
The SW hotel was nice and clean and then a great location. The only weird thing is there is not a human being in sight.
Very odd to check in and out of a hotel and not to see a single person.

Seascape Room was perfect!
The Seascape Room was super clean and exactly what I needed! Nice little kitchenette with a decent size refrigerator. While the Seascape Room doesn't have a window, it's the perfect room for solo travellers if you simply need a place to crash and trying to save money as it's the cheapest room you can reserve at the SW Beach Hotel.
