We spent nearly every day at either the pool or beach club, and we dined in all restaurants on property. I was also able to get in a round of golf, while my wife and daughters enjoyed the spa.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Hot Breakfast was good with different hot items each day. Loved our King suite. In addition to paying a pet fee of $25 per night we also had to pay for parking which I thought should be included in the room rate. TV was limited as we couldn't find a football game we wanted to watch. Selection of restaurants within close walking distance.

The views are the best you will find. You can lay in bed and hear the tide and see the ocean. The rooms are extremely clean and the property is well maintained and safe. The neighborhood surrounding is comfortable and safe and we walked the neighborhood and beach every day. The location is a short drive to several cities for shopping and dining. If you want to stay close to the hotel, the Fisherman's pier and restaurant are within steps. Great location!
