“I think this is a smart choice for travelers with pets, made even better by the surprisingly good food and drink options nearby. I especially like that it provides a daily breakfast buffet, and the location a block from the beach is ideal. It seems like a genuinely family-friendly spot, made more appealing by the ease of having your dog along.”
