I liked the La Serena Inn for many reasons. First, it had a very calm and peaceful atmosphere that my family and I enjoyed very much. Secondly, we definitely enjoyed the free breakfast with waffles. (Saved more that $30). Finally, we enjoyed watching the ocean from our balcony and having the beach one block away from our room.
