I remember reading about the new beach suites early 2011 and I had made many attempts to get up there and see the new rooms. Finally- this September, I stayed 2 nights in a 1 bedroom beach suite. They are an entire new section of the hotel. The beach suites are set up like a condo building- where from the moment of arrival you really do feel like you live there- or have rented your own condo. The units are so incredibly comfortable. They have kitchens, full living rooms, fireplaces, outdoor spaces and incredibly expansive bathroom and bedroom.
