Great location, good hotel
Loved the location & feel of this hotel, very relaxing which was exactly what we were looking for. Lovely promenade along the waterfront which goes along Shelter Island. Our room was in the Casa Marina, hotel is split into different buildings, it was large with a microwave, fridge & coffee maker as well as a balcolny with table & chairs overlooking the bay to San Diego. It was a great view ! Pools loved lovely, we didn't use them, restaurant was excellent ,ate both breakfast & one evening meal there. Only gripes were no housekeeping throughout our stay, even when putting tag on door asking for housekeeping. Bathroom sink didn't drain unless you held tge plug up & the fridge froze our drinks ! Tried turning it down but made no difference.

It’s always great staying here. The only glitch we experienced was the system was down for check in. They gave us free drink tickets and a discount for a meal while we waited. No worry. Things like this happen.

We had a great stay. Our room overlooked a marina that we really enjoyed. We enjoyed walking around the whole island. That’s the hotel is on. I would go back tomorrow if I could the only thing that I really dislike that was the restaurant if you just need some appetizers it’s fine but their meals were terrible.
