We booked an ocean view but it was on the lower floor so we had to pay to upgrade to a top floor. It was worth it for the fabulous views the laundry facility was very useful. The setting was lovely. The food in The Lounge was good value with a lively atmosphere. Staff I. The restaurant were very friendly.
