Great experience!
We had a wonderful time. Enjoyed the rooms. Linens were fresh. Towels nice and fluffy. View was landscaping and a bit of the ocean in the distance but otherwise mostly trees. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.

The Moonstone beach location of this property is excellent. Staff was also great. From there, everything just goes downhill. The double queen rooms are very small, 250 esf, and there is barely room to move around. There are no chairs, no desk, etc. Not even room to put a suitcase stand. Smallest room I have ever stayed in. The room also feels very old. Windows are worn out, floors look worn out, just old. No room to sit your luggage or anything else. They wasted the only space (top of the dresser) to have mini bar items that they are trying to sell you at overinflated prices. Needed some towel racks in the bathroom. We thought this room was a very poor value for what we had to pay.
