Great ocean front property. The rooms were modern and clean. The exteriors had nice landscaping, and the bar by the pool had nice music and drink specials. We really enjoyed the restaurant. Their in-house restaurant, called BRGR, had excellent dinner and lunch dishes, truly delicious, served with amazing service. Breakfast was not as great, but I will definitely recommend it for dinner.

Overall it was a great stay at your resort but we felt the prices for food and drinks were very expensive at pool side . The day we were leaving my girlfriend decided to get us coffee at the restaurant on site, as she was walking across the parking lot the men doing the tree trimming were whistling at he as she walked by. I find this behavior is unexpected and I made mention to the front desk.
