"Place was clean with nice views. The pool and swim up bar was clutch. Just one issue with staff on arrival they stated their internet was down and couldn’t give us our room. They only offered a refund but when I pushed back and stated I didn’t want a refund because we were from out of town they then checked us in. Other than that the food at the on site restaurant was good . Comfortable stay"
