My family and I had a lovely time at this hotel. It's right on a stunning beach with great waves for surfing, and the rooms are spacious and clean. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making us feel right at home. The dining options were good, although a bit limited. Overall, it's a fantastic place to unwind, but it would be nice if the menu had more variety.
