The staff is always warm and courteous. We felt more than safe with the Covid-19 restrictions that are in place. For the time being, ...

We had a wonderful time, loved the view, the ocean breezes, ease of walking to beaches and helpful host staff. We loved the room with super comfortable mattress. The best is the deck to sit outside and be so close to the ocean.
