I couldn't have asked for a better location! Right on the ocean, close to the little port, and conveniently near the Ferry Terminal. Rooms were spacious, modern, and had a great view. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. However, the dining options were limited to just fried eggs and smoothies. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
