Stunning location, great staff and service. Highly recommend the restaurant for happy hour and a mea
Pros:

The view from our room was spectacular and although smallish, had everything we needed for our brief stay. Staff were super helpful and friendly. The restaurant and wait staff were amazing. Really good food and service.

Cons:

The room was a tiny bit tired and the bathroom could do with a refurb. The shower in particular was a bit tricky to work out the first time.

Beautiful view
Pros:

The suite has everything you could need to be comfortable for a long or short stay. The kitchen was well stocked with everything one could need, there was private laundry in the room with soap provided and even a second bathroom. The tub in the main bathroom is amazing. I'm 5"11 and the rub was plenty long enough for me to stretch out my legs, which is rare for me to find. The view was amazing and the location was wonderful with good restaurants and grocery stores nearby, the beach/boardwalk and of course the playground if you have kids with you.

It was pleasant and just what we wanted for a couple of days.
Pros:

View was great, and beds were comfortable. Bed linens were just right. Restaurant was top notch.

Cons:

Room was noisy with heating sounds from furnace/fan and affected our sleep. We actually had to go out and buy ear plugs. We didn't know the resort provided ear plugs. The bathroom is way too small, particularly for women. Not enough space for toiletries and make-up. Room is a bit small in order to sit in chairs and watch tv (don't always want to be lying down). (a November trip with rainy weather = staying inside a bit more than expected)
