“In a remote location where views and recent renovations stand out, this property presents a mixed experience. The suites themselves are top-notch, but spotty communication around check-in and access, coupled with challenging road access and unreliable door locks, detract from the overall appeal. While the ocean views and proximity to the beach are undeniable assets, prospective guests should be prepared for potential logistical hurdles upon arrival.”
