Pros +
- Breakfast was very good for a continental free breakfast. It was crowded and one whole side was very sunny could have used blinds. Entry to room didn't have a cover so if it rained you would have gotten wet.
- Great location
- Breakfast was good. Loved the private beach area.
Cons -
- Other than breakfast room issues, very difficult to navigate hotel. Lots of ramps only one elevator. Parking lot very tight parking and hard to navigate. Much of the hotel outside. It was rainy hot and humid when we went. I can't imagine navigating this hotel in the winter.
- Difficult getting to the room
- The room we booked was a handicap room. However, the bed was so high that it was difficult to get into it. The facility needs some upgrading.
