Everything was nice and clean and the partial ocean view was amazing. Though it was very clean, because of the age of the property and some furniture items it did feel a little rundown and very used. The rooms themselves could use a bit of an upgrade. The location and pool and lounging beds/chairs were very up to date and clean and the caves straight to the beach is such a plus to have!
