We really enjoyed the oceanfront view from our balcony and the convenience of walking out onto the beach (through the gated pool area). We didn’t use the pool, but there were plenty of lounge chairs around it, but no umbrellas. The location of the hotel was good, close driving distance to restaurants, shopping, pier, state park. Kitchen was nice and had everything we needed.My only complaint was that I thought the room could have been cleaner, for instance, the bedroom had carpet which was very dirty and needed replacing, and shower could have been cleaner. Outdoor area around elevators was very “tired” looking.
