"Our room (Specialty Room) was clean and roomy. The furnishings were new and the kitchen was updated with a kitchenette and a stainless steel refrigerator. The bathroom was a bit dated but had a nice closet and drawers in the vanity. Parking was a bit of an issue, as space is limited. Restaurants are a 3 minute walk away from where our room was with several options. We only wish our room hadn't been the farthest from the beach, as I was not aware the property was spread out as it was. There was a nice pool nearby, but we decided to avoid the family's with their young children. Still overall, we enjoyed our visit."
