Ocean Front at The Entrance

Ocean Front at The Entrance

10/10 Excellent
"We had the room on the top floor where the king size bed faces the view of the ocean. The view from this room was just spectacular!! We never wanted to leave. The deck off the room is very large with comfortable chairs. The bed was very firm, but we asked for and were given a bed softening pad which helped. The room, bathroom and balcony have all been redone. The bathroom was beautifully done in marble-look tile. The shower was large with a nice height adjustable rain-head shower head. This was very welcome as my husband is 6’3”. One nice surprise is that in addition to a small fridge, the room was outfitted with a microwave, toaster, tea/coffee maker and mugs, plates, bowls and cutlery. They also supplied coffee and tea. The front desk was very helpful. We hope to come back and stay again."
