The staff and atmosphere here are so welcoming. The food and nice people we’ve had the pleasure to meet have made it one of the best places on the island Kim is a great mixologist and super nice. Cocktails are hand crafted and the food is all fresh and made from scratch. Could continue to tell you how great it is but we want to keep our seats. Make reservations if you want dinner. Enjoy!

Best hotel breakfast restaurant I have been to in a very long time. Firstly, the food is fantastic - very clean and very well prepared. The chef, Merve, does an incredible job! She is also extremely friendly and always has a smile on her face. On the front end, the cafe serves up a nice mix of well-prepared, quality coffee drinks. They’re a “proud to serve Starbucks” cafe, so you know the coffee will always be up to snuff. Melanie is an extremely friendly barista that always has a smile on her face and seems to connect with every customer that goes through the line. I worked remotely from here for a week, and morning after morning I watched these two kick off everyone’s days with a smile and great service. Great job, Courtyard! These two make this hotel outstanding.
