If you’re flying in like we did, they have everything you need. Walking distance to the boardwalk and stores. Definitely
Pros:

We loved the property. Very clean, they offered towels by the pool, they had wash clothes for removing make up, if you needed anything they had a basket you place outside of the door and they will restock what you need. The front office staff was so kind and patient with us. They definitely made out stay better

Pros:

I love to be in the Hotel, It’s a bit pricey, but we always have a great time; the rooms are spacious, and the location—the beach—is spectacular. The only thing I didn't like was the limit of one car per room, even though we had multiple rooms. Parking outside the property is incredibly expensive this year—$100 a day—which is way too much; plus, I saw the lots were empty, in previous years you had to walk around looking for a spot.

Excellent stay
Pros:

This is our second visit to this hotel, it’s an absolutely fantastic experience. The staff are friendly, approachable and very professional. The room is spacious, absolutely spotless, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Our room overlooked the pool and was 5 minutes to the actual beach ( might be less than 5). Parking onsite. Very close to bars, restaurants and coffee shops. There were facilities to dine in your own room, microwave etc if you wanted. Everything was absolutely perfect. Hopefully we will be back in September.

Pros:

Location, price, comfortable. My second time and love it. Rooftop view is amazing and like that they added the am yoga although 1x per wk

Cons:

Wish they finish the rooftop bar for nighttime entertainment. Pool hours should go until 11pm and parking for the 2 bedrooms should be for 2 cars
