It was beautiful. Was clean. Loved the hot spa. Had a beautiful view also. My only critique is, there was no heater and no extra towels. We stayed a couple nights and our towels remained damp as there was no heat or sun out. But other than than, we loved our stay. Definitely recommend.

stayed in the studio apartment, no curtains or blinds in the kitchen area off which is the bathroom. To travel between the bed to the bathroom there is no privacy, and this is ground level and the BBQ area and shared cloths line is right there. King bed is 2 singles pushed together with no topper. Aircon has no controller, it is set and you push a button on the unit to turn on with no way to adjust the temperature. very quiet location, a bit exposed at night, with not much lighting at entry door which is from a yard.

The property was great except that the toilet has a major leak so we found out in the morning when nearly slipping in a puddle of water on the tiles in the bathroom. Otherwise the trip and room were great. We would definitely come back again
