The hotel was clean, neat, and family friendly! Staff was so kind and always said hello. I loved that they had an ice machine and water dispenser. The room had microwave and mini fridge which was great! The pool was heated and the beach was so close by. I loved this hotel and we will be back.

"Beautiful place, very nice people, amazing food!"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed July 25, 2025 NEW
Only one recommendation to get out of the way: replace the carpet that is really dated and dirty which detracted from our experience, BUT I want to highlight the following which made this place a great stay and worth it: 1. The staff are amazing and incredibly friendly. A special shout out to Sean who was at the front desk who was so nice and was kind even though he was not feeling 100%. Daniel was also very thorough on checking us in and helping us extend our stay last minute. 2. The housekeeping staff was very nice as well and work hard at keeping everything as neat and clean as possible. 3. They are pet friendly and our dog was very comfortable with the spaciousness of the rooms and they provided treats as well. 4. Their restaurant food was soooooo delicious, a huge thanks to the chef!!!!! We ordered each night and it was worth the price!!!! 5. The pool is very clean, and not overcrowded. I would stay here again and highly recommend it. Thank you Cape Rey for helping our stay be amazing!
