This was such a wonderful stay! We were staying with our 2 year old, and everyone went out of their way to make us comfortable and even appreciated as a family with a small kid. We were upgraded to a villa, which was a lot of fun for our son. Room was spotless, the shower had amazing pressure with hot water, and the mattress was possibly one ofthe best we've laid our heads on. Their breakfast came with a side of smiles and always made our days start off on a positive note. Thank you Susan, Hannah, Priscillia (and everyone else who's names I might mot remember!). Highly recommednd. Good location, good vibes, and comfortable.
