I enjoyed my stay at this property; it is well maintained, very clean and safe with wonderful staff. The beachfront Lava Lava restaurant is a must, what a gem (although a pricey one). The room is beautifully and conveniently furnished; I appreciate the many clever storage options. On the downside, it is lively place, with children running around, music being played in the bar, so it is only quiet during the night. The rooms are not specially sound proofed. Also, the rooms feel quit cold and damp during the night, maybe due to proximity to the beach.

Best 9 days! So relaxing and beautiful The property has been recently renovated, is located right on the water, with Lava Lava restaurant, walking / bike paths for miles along ocean. Hot tub, pool, fire pit, bikes and yoga on the beach every morning. The beach in front of resort is perfect for surfing and swimming. The staff are friendly and helpful. So many coffee dining options, grocery store that I didn’t rent a car. Highly recommend!
