    Beautiful view from our room. The hotel provides transportation from the airport which is close to the hotel.

    The best part of the experience was waking up to the ocean at your feet as boats pass by in the ocean. It's an experience of being in the water while in bed. The property has a beautiful beach, and a bar over looking the water.
