We had a wonderful experience at the hotel, where cleanliness was clearly prioritized, and the spacious rooms provided stunning views of the ocean. The staff, including Ameena at the restaurant, were incredibly friendly and attentive, enhancing our stay. We also loved the breakfast, which was a delightful mix of sweet and savory options, making it a great start to our day.
