I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with clean and comfortable accommodations. The beach right next to the property was stunning, making it easy to spend my days soaking up the sun. However, I felt like the breakfast offerings could have been a bit more varied. The service was attentive, but at times it felt a little slow. Overall, it's a great place for a beach getaway with some room for improvement in dining options.
