We booked three rooms. We had called in advance to ensure all three rooms would be in the same building. We were told they would be. Also, one of the three rooms was supposed to have two queen beds. When we got there, though, our rooms weren’t in the same building and none of the rooms had two queen beds. The views are always amazing here, though.

We had a great time. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. We were disappointed that our unit did not have a patio.

Horrible Tides
Horrible. Not worth $350 a night. Mattress really bad and should have been replaced long ago. It squeezed when moving on it and was so worn it was like sleeping in a hammock. No hot water, morning shower was with cold water. Hotel staff listened to me but seemed to have the attitude of “Oh well “.
