I had a wonderful time at the hotel, especially enjoying the fantastic beach access right across the street. The room was spacious, and I loved having a kitchenette that made our family vacation smoother. The staff really went above and beyond to assist us during our stay. However, the pricing felt a bit steep, especially considering the additional charges for kids over 12, which made our stay more costly than expected. Overall, it was a great beach getaway, but I felt like they prioritized profit a bit too much.
