Pros:

Lovely location. The balcony views were fabulous for sunset margaritas and watching the squirrels eat x

Cons:

There was a lack of clothes hanging facilities however plenty of shelfs. The bathroom could do with a few hooks as well.

A beautiful location with great food
Pros:

The food was excellent and the buffet offered more than enough variety and options. The location was beautiful and truly exceeded our expectations. Everything came together to make the stay very enjoyable.

Cons:

The only issue we encountered was with the room pricing. We booked a room for two people through the booking platform, but upon arrival we were informed that the price was incorrect and had to pay an additional charge of about $15 per day for the second guest. While the extra cost wasn’t significant, the front desk mentioned this is a common issue when booking through Booking.com. I would recommend booking directly or through another channel to ensure the correct rate.

This really is the king of locations for a family surf holiday.
Pros:

Amazing breakfasts for fuel us up for a day of surfing. Incredible location – could check the waves from bed. Welcoming and family friendly – the staff and atmosphere are just great. Couldn't do better for a family surf base.

Cons:

Not a lot really. I can't think of anything we didn't love.
