Our room was right on the beach, couldn’t be any closer. Room was very clean and spacious and my sons loved sleeping on the sofa bed. Breakfast was delicious every morning and the view of the ocean is unbeatable. We were able to star gaze at night by the firepits. All in all, a wonderful stay!

This resort was absolutely beautiful. Everyone and everything we encountered was excellent. The location was also fantastic. Our room had an incredible ocean view right on the beach, which was simply amazing. However, I wish they had a gym and parking in front of the unit instead of having to go all the way down to the reception area.

Our room was a partial ocean view. Room was beautiful when you walk in and the grounds are impeccable. In the evening We turned on the fireplace and it didn’t work. It was fixed the next day but when we went to use it, it only stayed on a few minutes and turned off. not even meeting the temperature it was set too. Our room had only cold water all of a Sudden and tub didn’t work Also had ants in the bathroom. This was our second time at resort. If it was our first visit we wouldn’t have gone back with all these problems since it’s expensive to stay here.

Great Property! A spluge for sure at about $600/nt. It's really a nice place. Well maintained. The restaurant is good. They light the bonfires on the beach each night, drive you to/from the rooms, pool & hot tub, robes/slippers. Rooms have a wet bar w/ a filter watered spout, fridge & micro wave. Everything was real nice. Worth it!
