Halyards Hotel & Spa is located right in the heart of the marina. The hotel offers spa treatments, a full restaurant and bar and has a small gym. Room standards can vary dramatically, however. Garden Rooms are cheapest and are recently renovated, but only rooms 45, 46, 49 & 50 have decent views. Marina Standard Rooms have a better view, but have not yet been renovated and have no air conditioning. The bi-level suites are the best options for families (ask for rooms 19 or 28). Be forewarned that rates rise dramatically during the holiday season.
