I had such a good stay at El Colibri Hotel & Spa. The location next to Moonstone Beach was perfect for relaxing walks along the boardwalk. The staff really stood out, being super friendly and helpful with recommendations. On the flip side, the room I stayed in could definitely use some updates, especially the furnishings and bathroom fixtures. Thankfully, the little annoyances were outweighed by the welcoming atmosphere and cozy vibe.
