The view was spectacular! The layout is a bit odd as there is an upper and lower. The cooling pool (I assume that’s what the listing mentioned) is definitely in an awkward spot so if traveling with small children it’s something to be aware of. It was also full and not clean. We accidentally left a bag of garbage behind so my sincere apologies for that as the trash can outside was full. Otherwise, great location, beautiful home, and amazing views!

False Advertisement

I was quite disappointed with my recent stay. The hot tub was not as advertised; it was empty, not able to be used and the cleanliness left much to be desired. I also experienced issues with the Wi-Fi connection, making it difficult to stay connected for work. Additionally, the bed broke nearly caused an injury to my family. Overall, I expected a more comfortable and smooth experience given the price. Unfortunately, I left feeling unsatisfied.
