The location, staff, pool, and restaurant were all wonderful. Right on the water and a stones throw from the beach. The pool room we stayed in could use a little TLC, but overall a very nice stay.

Great location and the sunset views are wonderful. The bay side room is right on the water. It’s quiet in the off season and very relaxing. The staff are so friendly and helpful! They make the stay even better! The room is on the small size but everything else made up for that!
View from our patio!

Sandra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fine for what it is, expensive with dogs

We were bummed about the $150 non refundable dog fee, which doubled the cost of the hotel. It’s a good deal for its price, but not if you tack on the dog fee.

Awesome views of the bay from our room, as well as just enough area for our kids to run around and play. The staff was absolutely fantastic. Beds were comfortable, rooms were clean, a little outdated, but everything was clean and worked as it should. Overall our family really enjoyed our stay!
