The place was beautiful and very well thought out as far as the vibes go. However, many details Or left out. There was no trashcan in the room and the open concept bathroom made it seem very jailhouse. The entire bathroom floor was soaking so you couldn’t take a shower and then get ready. There is no mirror other than the one above the sink. Not very practical.

Property is beautiful. BUT not for a family that wants a peaceful get away. You will be up till midnight hearing doors slamming, people yelling, and loud music all night. Also dont mind sharing the hotel you paid for because people off the street can buy a day pass and will take up every open seat/bar area until who knows when. Also get to the pool by 6:15… AM or youre not getting a seat anywhere. our room had boiling hot water or freezing cold water no in between while showering . In all honesty this place is not a go to or ever will be unless policy changes or they create space for only staying guest so people off the street have limited access. Besides that the bed is great. The shower was dirty with previous guest hair which the staff did come to clean but how disgusting. The diner was mediocre with breakfast being great but lunch service was horrendous for instance the hostess putting menus on an empty table but not giving us any while walking directly past us… not offering water or anything. So dont go here unless you want a headache and regret from overspending at this shack
