"The resort and / is priceless, so peaceful, beach fantastic. albeit, it looks like it is getting tired (eg, chrome rubbed off of faucets, toilets lacking water pressure). My issue was the amount of time consumed checking in - over an hour (for something we had previously checked in on-line). My suggestion, while not the property of the resort, the beach front accumulates a lot of trash from the tides. As a sign of goodwill, the resort should clean, rake the beach daily."
