ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: From the moment you arrive, the experience feels like stepping back into the 1950s with a glamorous, retro-chic vibe. At check-in I was immediately welcomed with a glass of Prosecco, setting the tone for a relaxed and elevated stay. The expansive lobby invites you to linger with plenty of comfortable seating, a stylish bar tucked to the side and a dedicated meeting area with multiple workstations. The music perfectly complements the atmosphere, enhancing the hotel’s effortlessly cool, nostalgic feel.
GUEST QUARTERS: I stayed in a king suite with a balcony overlooking both the pool and the beach. The room beautifully reflected the hotel’s vintage-inspired aesthetic, featuring touches such as Audrey Hepburn artwork; Mid-Century furnishings; soft, ambient lighting around the bed; and even a classic old-fashioned telephone. The space was both spacious and cozy, blending nostalgic design with modern amenities. Looking out over the pool felt like a scene from a Barbie Dreamhouse with pink umbrellas and towels.
SERVICES/AMENITIES: The property features two pools, including an adults-only infinity pool overlooking the ocean. Guests enjoy direct beach access with complimentary chairs as well as bike rentals along the beachfront path. A fitness center and locker room are also available. Dining was a highlight of my stay. My first evening was spent at The Bungalow Bar, which offers a lively
yet relaxed setting. The bartender and fellow guests were incredibly personable and welcoming, making it an ideal spot to unwind. The following night I dined at Donna Mare Italian Chophouse, where the service was exceptional and the wedge salad and chicken Parmesan were absolutely delicious.
TOP TAKEAWAY:
- A beautifully designed beachfront hotel that seamlessly blends nostalgic 1950s charm with modern luxury, elevated by warm, personable service and standout dining experiences.
