“What sets this place apart is its dedication to a personalized approach, more akin to a boutique stay than a large resort. Guest rooms are well-appointed, and perks such as beach equipment rentals add value. I particularly appreciate its location; moments away from both the beach and the cultural vibrancy of Las Olas Boulevard.”
