Dream Machines Get Away

We stayed just one night and check in was efficient and the room was very nice and comfortable. There are two things that I would suggest be reviewed: 1) there was a wall heater so I turned that on and when we got back after dinner it was very cold in the room. Then we saw a space heater in the room and realized the main heater did not work. It would have been nice to have known that. Actually, this should be fixed. 2) the bathroom towels to be used for the shower we amazingly small and very thin. This was not a pleasure at all and for this type of hotel - I think these towels should be improved upon

Noisy from upstairs guests, you could hear all footsteps and many conversations. Assuming just loud, disrespectful guests as the hotel couldn’t fix. That was our only real complaint.

We had an amazing time and it's a beautiful place. They did switch our room because the heater wasn't working but it also didn't work in the toom they moved us to. A really nice, little place though.

Ocean view is complemented by rusty gas station. I paid extra for ocean view, but only ocean you could see was in the far distance and through tree branches.

A Few Small Touches Would Help A Lot

I want to love this hotel, but... With just a few small things it could be so much better! Like, put a real coffee pot in the lobby. Maybe a few snacks, too. Get rid of the towels that have holes in them. Tighten the screws on the doorknobs. Real cups and glasses in the rooms. These are inexpensive, small items that would go a long way in upping their appeal.

Beware of extra charges not mentioned in the Total Price on hotels.com. Extra charges were not mentioned at check-in, receipt was not emailed upon check-out. Room was pleasant, but no ocean view

Although there is not a lot of options for coffee and other things. Our room was amazing. We had the top floor, when we asked questions on where to go, he was friendly and told us where to see the star fish and just have a good time and food with in a decent time. I really just loved the view and how peaceful it was.
