“This property has potential, particularly with its beachfront location and ocean views, though some aspects need attention. While family-friendly with a nice pool and proximity to the beach, some rooms require upgrades and noise may be an issue. In my opinion, it's a good option, but it may not fully deliver on a resort experience as some may expect.”
