limited breakfast menu missing safe
The breakfast menu felt somewhat restrictive. it was also surprising to find no phone in the room. I had to walk to reception for every little thing ! also, the absence of a safe in the room reminded me of a miss. i would have liked to keep my documents more secure.

Absolutely Amazing Honeymoon Suite!!!

romantic location honeymoon suite magnificent room
This place has to be one of the most romantic locations ever. I surprised my sweetheart at the end of October. Our King Room Sea View was magnificent for two nights. The room and its view offered some of the best experiences imaginable!!!
The breakfast menu was slightly limited, and the quality was just average.
