Duval House
I have stayed at the Duval House many times over the years. Always a welcoming staff, rooms are clean, amenities including the pool are quietly and privately tucked away. Morning coffee and breakfast are super great with multiple breakfast foods and varieties. Remember to ask for daily Housekeeping ...

Almond Tree Inn Hotel - Adults Only
The hotel is great, with lots of little touches that make a difference but get overlooked by many hotels(great pillows, comfy mattress, soft towels, highly adjustable lighting, etc.). The staff have the best customer service of anywhere I've ever stayed.
