The space
Our Suite is located right in front of the ocean, pretty hard to beat. The buildings are fairly new and very wee maintained. The maintenance team does a fantastic job taking care of the pools, and keeping the common areas in prestige conditions.
Our suite has being used for our family as a vacation spot since it was build, lately we decided to give others the chance to experienced this fantastic and relaxing spot. So far, it has being a great decision.
