Very nice place to stay overlooking the bay. Friendly staff, well-maintained property, clean and comfortable. They have a restaurant on site. However, the menu is fairly limited. But what I did have was excellent. Beautiful walking path right across from the hotel along the bay. Close to downtown restaurants and activities.

“Our stay at the hotel on May 26th was truly wonderful. The atmosphere was peaceful and elegant, and our room was comfortable and beautifully arranged. Although we only stayed one night, it was a perfect getaway, and we woke up feeling refreshed. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quick, relaxing escape.”

We had a great overnight stay. It was clean, tidy, and very comfortable throughout. The highlight for our family was definitely the heated indoor pool. Having pool towels provided made it super easy and convenient. We also really appreciated the water filters/fountains, which were a nice touch (and helps the environment) The location was great, and we found parking around the hotel to be easy and hassle-free. Overall, a very family-friendly option and we’d happily stay again.

A great hotel! We stopped for the night and we were so impressed with the hotel, I wanted to stay longer but unfortunately we had a flight to catch. The rooms have recently been renovated and were just perfect, the location was an easy access to the domestic terminal. I have already recommended it it to our local friends. The harbor and surrounding area were pretty and many restaurants to choose. Check in/out were very easy. I will definitely stay again if I’m ever fortunate enough to come back

Everything in the hotel was super clean and fresh. Easy access to walking trails into harbor. Restaurant staff went above and beyond to accommodate. Great experience.
