The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. Beautiful ocean view and we had a good view of dolphins swimming up the coast on Monday morning. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was that the check-out person at the front desk barely made eye contact and never asked how our stay was.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Property needed more attention to room cleanliness and the entirety of our stay we were without air conditioning on the top floor, it was stuffy and hot in the rooms and made sleeping comfortably difficult. Close to beach and restaurants and the weather was nice which made not being in the room for long periods of time possible.
