The view was exactly as the picture showed! Beautiful! It is the perfect spot for whale watching as we saw whales from the lanai everyday. We also saw turtles everyday just a few steps away from our room. The room was clean and nicely decorated. We appreciated having binoculars for whale watching, coolers & beach chairs for excursions and the beach towels being supplied. The portable air conditioner in the bedroom was another plus! There are plenty of restaurants, beaches and grocery stores just a short drive away. We would definitely stay here again!
