We had a great winter trip for the new year at this hotel. Super nice heated pool and hot tub with extended hours & swim up bar, great food, nice staff, clean, comfortable bed, nice gym, great 6th floor ocean view and just across the street from the beach with lots of food options around. It was so good we stayed an extra day. A+++++ we will be back!
