Beautiful view, but cockroaches ruined my stay at the hotel.
Pros:

The location was my favorite part, right in front of the beautiful beach.

Cons:

I saw cockroaches the last day we were there, the room didn’t seem to be the cleanest but I wasn’t too worried about it since we were going to be spending the majority of our time outdoors.

Probably won't stay again
Pros:

The view. Great chairs on our balcony to sit and enjoy the view, Nice bed but a little high.

Cons:

After paying for the room we were told we would have to pay $10 a day to park!! This the third time we have stayed at this hotel and had never paid for parking before. I watched people come and go with all their beach baggage and head down to the beach. Obviously they did not pay for parking since they were not guests!!! On the weekend it was very difficult to find a parking space. Make your parking for guests only!!

Average at its best, was clean until we came back to the room on Saturday night and there were all these little flies in
Pros:

Room was clean and on the beach

Cons:

We booked this property 4 months in advance I had two rooms under one name and my rooms were in different buildings. We booked beach front and we were stuck on the 1st floor looked at a brick wall.
