We had a very nice stay here.....the place is going through some construction but didnt distract alot. Had dinner one night at hotel, try the Black Grouper, very tasty. Only issue is the pricing. $50 for two drinks is steep, not to mention charging $44 a day for valet.......this was a big turn off.
