    Everything about the hotel was so impressive. Room was huge, can properly fit family of 6. Ocean view from the window. We could even open the sliding window to let the breeze in and enjoy the wave sound. The staff was super attentive. Right after...

    All are wonderful. The big window with ocean-view is great. Nothing but soothing and relaxing. The futon bed and pillows are superb!
