We found John’s place to completely peaceful. Between the setting on the ocean and the open air concept we found ourselves staying in more than going out. Visiting the returning turtles daily was an added bonus. Ultimately you won’t find anything better for the price! If you don’t like the sound of people enjoying their vacations ( until the pool closes @10pm) this place may not be your scene due to the open air concept. I will say the birds chirping, wind blowing and sound of the ocean collapsing on the shore definitely out weighed the pool conversation. All in all we had a terrific stay and would love to visit again. Mahalo~
