I had a wonderful time at this resort! The location was perfect, allowing us to enjoy beautiful views and access to the marina. The service was exceptional, making us feel truly welcomed. The dining experience was great, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. However, the town nearby had limited dining options, and a coin or cash is essential for taxis. Overall, it's a fantastic place to unwind and enjoy a getaway.
