Cabin 1684

Room 1684 is a lovely spacious ocean view balcony room. Two of us stayed in the room and had plenty of space to storage luggage under the bed and hang clothes on the closet. The down side is that there are no plug ins next to the bed on either side. There are only two outlets across the room as part of the desk unit. Very inconvenient for charging devices or if you have a cpap you need an extension cord that will have to be draped across the room.
