lovely seaside getaway

sea viewdog friendly hoteldelicious foodmissing dog treats
i stayed in a beautiful sea view room. The view was amazing, the best part of my stay, I think. The hotel is super dog friendly, SUCH a plus. The food was delicious and the cocktails were divine.
i sort of expected dog treats and a bed, based on the details i received. however, i would say it was not the end of the world not to have them.
