Relaxing Stay by the ocean

I had the ocean view room, and it was absolutely incredible! The fire pits, the breathtaking view, and the soothing sound of the waves lulling me to sleep and waking me up were all so delightful. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the fireplace added a cozy ambiance to the room. Being able to easily walk down to the beach made morning beach strolls easy! Additionally, since I had an electric vehicle, I was pleased to find that there were a couple of charging stations available, making it a convenient stay. The staff was also incredibly lovely and accommodating, ensuring that my experience was nothing short of exceptional.

I loved the view and the proximity to everything we needed. I did not like how super low the toilets are, and if there was one thing i would change is having a restaurant on site, even just a breakfast restaurant other than the premade foods that are offered there in the morning. Overall, I’d give a 4 out of 5 for this property.
