It's a good location, close to anything you need, there's plenty of room for a couple or a couple with children, it has a pull out couch, there's a table top view of the beach in door so you stay cool while enjoying the view or there's patio seating in the breeze way on each end of the floors, the bed is comfy and the area is quite, we will definitely be making this our choice again ##### connie t.
