The food (especially the breakfast) was just so amazing and all the staff was very kind too. Location is couldn't be better. Highly recommend this place and if you are debating don't think twice. "
"The property is fantastic. Clean with all the amenities you need. Spacious. Clean. Only suggestion is the host needs to communicate to get the key. We were early and it took a local to find the place. It is attached to the ocean blue property and that is on Google maps. Host needs to what's app to get the key more clearly. Other than that it was a great stay. I would recommend it to every one."
