Nice size room and nice room amenities. I choose a balcony room, thinking that it had an ocean view, but it had a roof/parking lot view instead. To change it would cost over $60, because I had booked through Expedia.

Everything about this place was wonderful!! I would love to stay here again. My only negative is that the rooms on the second floor are for guests with dogs. We don’t have a dog and we’re given a room on the second floor. I am very allergic to dogs & cats & had to take my allergy medication the entire stay.

Warning: from a non-ocean view room, you will look at a roof top, a building wall or a parking lot. If your budget allows, get a ocean view room. The food at the resort restaurant is good but expensive.
