Charmed by the beach proximity!

quaint beachroom upgradelimited hours
The massage at the spa was AMAZING!!! Paula really sorted out my aches and pains with a deep tissue massage. The staff were helpful and gave me a room upgrade. The beach below is nice. It's really quaint.
I was notified about limited restaurant opening hours a short time before arrival. Upon arrival, I learned there was no bar, requiring me to rely on delivery services. This made it difficult to enjoy convenient refreshments on site.
