This place was even more beautiful in person than in the pictures. Stunning views and easy access to everything. The decor was adorable and our hostess Alana was very sweet and responsive. I was fortunate to experience 74 degrees and sunshine in early January to celebrate my 60th birthday here. I definitely can’t wait to come back.
