Overall 5 stars. We loved it. Was it perfect? No.
CONS:
* Dated in areas—it’s not a hotel, so there are not multiple outlets/ports near the beds, but we managed. A couple switches did not work but we didn’t care. Decor a little tired, but feels relaxed.
* Lighting in master bath is super dim. I had read a prior review to bring my own lit make-up mirror & was glad I did.
* Lock on master slider was tough to get latched but we made it work.
* Pool is dated & small compared to resorts—but my older teens didn’t care to go in, anyway.
* Being on 1st floor (off ground level, essentially up short flight of stairs) meant sunbathers were sometimes closer than we liked, but there was plenty of morning & evening time when no one was on beach.
PRO’S:
* The View. The View. The View. Breathtaking view. Even the teens were impressed! We sat on the patio every evening, every morning, and tons in between. We saw many whales. Perfect sunrises. Cool view of neighboring islands.
* Very nice calm beach. Snorkeling is decent—we found sea turtles 2 times right near beach and swam with them. Highlight of trip.
* Kitchen is great— coffee pot, toaster, blender, double ovens & big fridge. Decent amt of dishes/utensils.
* Location is near small grocery, restaurants, gas, liquor.
* It’s nice but not overly fancy. We felt at home. Relaxed family / older vibe (no loud music/not anyone drinking too much).
* A/C worked well. Laundry was nice. Appreciated the beach towels. On-site bar/restaurant was option when we were tired after a long day. Saw groups using grills but we never did. Plenty of lounge chairs. Location of unit in building very close to pool, beach, parking—very easy & convenient.
