My husband and I were fortunate enough to stay here from mid-November to mid-December. We were one of the only guests for our entire stay, which was pretty amazing. They upgraded us to an ocean view until on the first floor (Lei building). We only had to walk a few yards to jump in the ocean, the pool or the hot tub. We enjoyed the grounds immensely and the free bikes. Biking on the coconut coast trail was a blast. I highly recommend Sam's Ocean View and Jimmy's Grill, right off of the trail. We walked to the Coconut Marketplace for breakfast at the Island Country Market (they have amazing food there) and at night often went to Bobby V's (Italian). We didn't go to Sushi Bushido, but heard it was good. The Olympic in downtown is our favorite spot to grab a cold beer. We love Lava Lava (it is closed), but were happy to have the place a little quieter. We enjoyed the free yoga with Anya several times. It's a great way to get your body engaged in the morning and it's perfect for all levels, Anya is awesome. I can't say enough about the staff. Jennie, the GM, and Anna run a tight ship! We felt extremely safe and taken care of. Everyone there is following Covid protocols. We only had housekeeping a handful of times, but anything was available immediately if we needed it. It was so quiet and peaceful at night - the blackout curtains let you sleep in if you need to or you can get up and witness some of the best sunrises ever, then head to yoga. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the grounds are immaculate. I would not only stay here again, I would move in if they'd let me - highly recommend.
