We ended up just staying one night instead of the 4 nights we booked. We checked out the very next day as soon as we fou
Pros:

Friendly staff, nice ocean view, and the rooms were clean.

Cons:

Beach area was full of trash and dog poop. No swimming allowed. Bathroom toilet wasn’t flushing. Room key was way too large to take anywhere. Beach water was murky.

Gwen made my trip! Wouldn’t change a thing
Pros:

Everything !! Absolutely amazing , what a beautiful location on the beachfront I couldn’t believe it when I arrived. Water, juice and coffee available throughout the day. Beds were really comfy. My highlight of the stay was meeting Gwen (Ghe) what an amazing woman, truly a breath of fresh air , couldn’t do more if she tried, helpful kind and always there if you needed !! Appreciate you so much.

Cons:

Leaving !
