A beautiful resort experience
The view of the bay was perfect. The staff was truly exceptional.
The bathroom. While very nice looking and clean, it's layout was not great and the shower was on par with a two star motel.

Beautiful, upscale resort
Very friendly and attentive staff, light and airy ambience, very well maintained facilities.
I wasn’t aware of the several mandatory fees that were in addition to the rate. This was disappointing.
