I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with clean accommodations and friendly staff. The beach service was great, but I was hoping for bottled water included when renting a cabana. I loved the ocean view from my room, but be aware that the lower floors offer limited views. It was still a relaxing getaway overall.

La Mer Beachfront Resort offered a delightful escape, conveniently located right by the beach for easy access and evening strolls. The resort amenities added to the experience, especially the complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas. However, the dining hours were a bit early for us, and we had to venture out for dinner on our last night, which was a minor inconvenience. Overall, it was a great spot, but communication about dining times could be improved.
