The Mayway Retreat where we stayed was amazing and the scenery was breathtaking. The accommodation was warm and welcoming. The rooms were immaculate and comfortable. The family room was very accommodating. The kitchen was very well supplied with about every utensil needed to prepare a home cooked meal. The pools offered a relaxing and scenic view. Can't wait to return.
