Disliked: Amenities
The rooms were charming, but the refrigerator was extremely small and there was no microwave. This is enough for me to not recommend or return. Also, most shops are not open Monday-Wednesday and the ones that are open don't do so until noon. The only thing we would recommend is going to the Aquarium where you can pet and feed the stingrays. That was a lot of fun.

Staying in August by the coast I wanted to get some sun. The pool was CLOSED FOR MAINTENANCE THE WHOLE TIME! Maybe Expedia could verify details like that before letting somebody book a summer vacation and hoping to swim. I would like a refund.
