I am recently widowed, 46, looking to get away for a few days. Would like a hotel with all of the amenities. Thinking JW, Opal Sands or Sand Pearl. Is one better than the other? Or is there another one that I did not list? Thank you!!!

We enjoyed Sand Pearl. It was on the beach (walk out hotel and you are right on the beach), spa, restaurants, and close to other restaurants outside the hotel.
Help! We’re a family of five (older kids) who would like to visit this area over Thanksgiving ‘24, but we’re not finding the perfect place to stay for our tastes.
