Loved the cove and how beautiful it was to be right on the water! It’s like a private oasis. They have so much outdoor seating and so much wildlife around! It was great to be able to run on the sidewalk in the morning and see otters.

The room was impeccably clean and had a microwave, Keurig coffee maker with 6 pods, bottled water, toiletries. The surroundings were incredible. The view from the room was breathtaking and the paths around the property lead to the most beautiful views of the ocean. I wish I could give it 6 stars.

Cherish at the front desk was wonderful and made us feel rightnat home immediately. We were able to park right by our room. Note that if you get a lower unit, a set of stairs is involved. The room was perfectly clean, large enough, had a patio overlooking the walking path. Only mistep was the fitted sheet was put on sideways so it kept slipping off the corners...not the first time weve seen that happen. The property was lovely. Theyboffered yoga in the garden and if wed had another day we would have done that. The night staff wasnt able to help us with restaurant recommendations but we managed. All in all, we would come back here
