Amazing views of the ocean. 50 feet and you're in the sand. The bar and the staff are so welcoming. They had an amazing guitar singer performing, Patrick Garza, and he had everyone singing along with him. We enjoyed the stay very much.

Its just ok now. We've been coming for several years and its seems like it goes down a notch for us a little more every time we visit. This year we had a leak in our room coming from the neighbors bathroom and the only solution for them on our week long stay was putting towels down. Also, the bathroom absolutely stinks in the room. I dont think there's any amount of clorox or odor killer that would fix the smell. I will never stay in that room again.
