"Clean lobby, hallways, room. Friendly staff. Two TVs in the room, neither worked - apps would not load. Since it was after 10:00pm that we realized this, we never bothered to ask for help. Ima sure it would have been resolved, but, again, we did not seek help. Would certainly stay again!"

"Beautiful family owned resort hotel. This was definitely the best place we stayed at for our trip. Staff were friendly and helpful, the resort was clean, food was good, and it had its own beach. They had live music in the bar and made fires on the beach for everyone. You really could not ask for much more."
