Do not stay here if you want to sleep

Drunk people partying and singing in the outdoor area of the hotel restaurant at 11 pm, which is an hour after closing time was ridiculous. Couldn’t sleep. This is unacceptable for the restaurant manager to allow.

Great stay

Wonderful location. Great beach for guests. Great pool with plenty of lounge chairs for all. Good restaurant. Room was in older wing and a little dated, but large with good view and a great ac. Shower needed a drain cleaning was the only gig along with shortage of complimentary body wash. Otherwise all was good. Nice bed and great pillows.
