Location was great, the staff i saw and spoke to were wonderful. The concrete poured on the walkways at this hotel is so slick when it gets wet that I fell flat on my back the first night we were there. The kids in my room also slipped and fell several times. Also we got maid service once in 3 days.

The room is large and was clean. We enjoyed the pool. Easy walk to the beach. Staff was helpful. Not too bad to park - just hope other guests leave their keys if they park you in. Would love to have better blackout curtains but seems like a minor issue. We would stay here again.
