We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location right next to a beautiful beach was perfect for early morning walks and watching whales. The hotel facilities, including the pool and hot tub, were well maintained and enjoyable. We also loved the peaceful and serene atmosphere, away from the busy city. The evening bonfire on the beach was a nice touch and created a cozy ambiance. The staff was attentive and made our stay memorable. We also appreciated the funny golf cart that we could use to drive around. this hotel provided a great experience with its cleanliness, location, activities, and friendly staff.
Nothing that we didn't like.
Right at the ocean front with a beautiful beach, peaceful atmosphere, evening bonfire on the beach, hot tub open until 10PM, funny golf cart to drive around.
All was good.
The hotel facilities were great - they had a private beach with bonfires and activities like yoga and free bike rentals. The location was perfect for a quick weekend getaway from the city, with beautiful natural habitat surrounding the property. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially the Indian man at the front desk.
Can honestly say there wasn't anything not to like.
I had an amazing stay at this beachfront hotel - it was truly a sanctuary. The staff provided impeccable customer service, always smiling and ready to assist me. The cleanliness of the hotel and its facilities exceeded my expectations. The location right on the Sand Dunes allowed for breathtaking views of the ocean and stunning sunsets. Additionally, the hotel's breakfast baskets were a delightful treat each morning, beautifully catered and fresh.
No negatives.
