Displeased
The place was very clean except for the old,stained lounge rug and a cockroach near the microwave. Couldn't find any peace with the noise from the staff and other guests. Had a warm welcome but lacked some info about the premises and what to expect...

Amazing. What you see on the website is what you get, and probably more. Loved the pool that has a demarcated portion for the young ones (*safety)
