Loved the place. Coffee and reading with the waves on view. Daily morning yoga with the view and sounds of the ocean was a wonderful bonus as well as the refillable water bottles and stations around. Pool and hot tub were nice. The restaurant was good too!

7-night trip

10/10

We enjoyed the property so much! The rooms and spaces looked newly renovated. The property had everything we needed. Beach is not swimmable - very wavy (and we live in the water) but pool and hot tube nice. Restaurant on site was convenient but too pricey for us - we found amazing restaurants less than a 5 minute drive away.

Loved this hotel, right on the beach. It was amazing to be able to wake up and walk into the ocean within 5 minutes. The attached Lava Lava Beach Club restaurant was really nice too.

The rooms were spacious and clean. Housekeeping came daily to switch out towels, stock coffee, empty garbage, and make beds, if needed. The rooms are equipped with a fridge, keurig coffee maker, a safe and ample storage (closet area, 3 drawer dresser, desk/vanity, open area at end of bed for suitcases, shoes, etc).
