Short stay
Good stay, free Wi-Fi for more than 2hours would be good as you can’t split the slot so lose it if you only use it for 20 minutes!

A relaxing overnight stay
We stayed in a suite and the room was perfect - spacious, clean, comfy, tastefully decorated. Large balcony with huge bath tub and relaxing couch and amazing ocean views.
Overall a very relaxing overnight stay

Absolutely stunning Hotel. Staff are friendly and professional. The room was clean, included everything needed. The Japanese restaurant wasn’t open the night I stayed but hopefully next visit I can try it.
