10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful new property with an excellent location for the beach and boardwalk. Staff were very attentive. Proximity to the boardwalk makes it popular with families, which means the pool is not always as peaceful as one might wish."

"Reception service was nice. Lobby and restaurant had lovely aesthetics. Room was modern and clean. Restaurant service was unorganized and slow. Food menu was decent though. Pool area was inviting but definitely need to change their pool chairs. The material makes them look super dirty. Yuk."
