Staff was friendly, location decent, but photo in the description of the room was very deceiving. It does say dune view, but in the photo you can see the ocean beyond the dune. I thought that's what I was going to get. Instead the dune is taller than the tops of the windows and all you see is the side of a giant pile of sand out the back. Windows don't open so I couldn't even hear the waves. Very disappointed. I wanted at least a little bit of an ocean view and I wanted to be able to hear it. Bathrooms need updating. I've got photos but this won't let me post them.

The room was very comfortable and large. The room was clean although an older property that had been renovated. Breakfast was fair, our room was in another building, so it was an outdoor trek to the dining room and during our stay it was cold and raining, this was an inconvenience. our room was on the second floor, and the balcony view was a sand bank. If the room was higher a view of the ocean would have been possible. The staff were friendly, and the bed was comfortable.
