Nice location. Few walkable restaurants & groceries/shopping. Nice bar/restaurant attached to the hotel with feet on the sand and ocean view. Parking was okay not as easy if you get there at dinner time on a weekend but manageable. Room was comfortable.

Very clean and quiet with nightly entertainment right on the beach. The newly renovated rooms are super comfortable and well maintained. Staff is very attentive and knowledgeable and always happy to help. The extra nice thing was that you can borrow a potted plant for your room to enjoy!!!! I’d suggest more laundry facilities as the wait can be long for the two washers and three dryers for the entire resort.

Hotel is right on the beach. Dining is really good, breakfast was exceptional as was the key lime pie. Parking is tight but there's a valet included if it's full, so no problem! Marketplace next door, walkable to a few other restaurants. Delightful mid century decor. One building in mid renovation but the updated rooms are nice, especially the bathrooms. Great stay!
