I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms are gorgeous, with a separate living area, fireplace, and patio with wicker furniture looking directly at the water. The service was top-notch, from the informative staff to the friendly shuttle driver. The location is perfect, especially if you enjoy sleeping in the most comfortable bed of your life. However, the dining experience, under the outdoor awning, was a bit over the top. The facilities were impeccable, enhancing the overall experience.
