Our take

Who it suits

Beach, swim-up bar, and the big dog comes too.

Order a drink without leaving the pool, cross the boulevard to the beach, and take the dog along: dogs and cats up to 75 lb are welcome, two per room. In the evening, walk 17 minutes to the Pleasure Pier, or head downtown to the Strand. The cruise port is only 1.3 miles away, and the hotel runs a cruise shuttle.
