The 3 bedroom unit was very spacious with ample room for the family. The balcony was a lovely place to sit and relax while listening to the ocean. So close to the beach! We have stayed a couple of times and will stay again next time we are in town.

Stayed in the 3brm executive room and it was perfect! Newly renovated and a perfect home away from home. We were so comfortable in this space. It was beautifully presented, clean, and our entertaining area overlooking the pool was amazing. The shared area overlooking the beach was amazing!
