Great location right on the water with an amazing view, well sized beds.

Not enough cups or bowls provided in the small kitchenette area.

Location, breakfast, facilities, staff, free on-site parking places. Sunset and beach views are amazing.

Bathroom is a little bit cold without heating and air conditioning.
