The hotel has an amazing location right by the beach, with a beautiful view and cute room decor. While the staff was very accommodating, I did face some issues with cleanliness and a lack of follow-up from management. Overall, it's a lovely spot for a family vacation, but the service experience could be improved.
Rooms

The rooms were beautifully decorated with an amazing view of the beach and pool. However, I encountered filthy sheets during my stay.
Service
6.0
The service was nice, but I expected better follow-up regarding my issue with the sheets. The front desk was prompt in delivering clean sheets, though.

The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the boardwalk and restaurants, which is a big plus for any beach trip.

The small taco stand by the pool is a fun addition, although I didn't try the restaurant during my stay.

The pool area was lovely, featuring fire pits and a cozy atmosphere. It's a great place to relax.
