The property right across from the beach, walking distance to nearby Nye beach restaurants and shops, quiet and safe area. Property staff were very helpful and friendly. The Whaler had great coffee to start off the day, plus an indoor pool and small exercise room.

The view of the ocean was perfect. We also enjoyed using the heated pool and spa. At first we were disappointed our room was right next to the stairs and elevator, but we didn't end up hearing much of the walking traffic. Staff was friendly and the needs were comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
