Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The place was decent but the pictures definitely were better than reality. The bathrooms are outdated and there was mold (what appears to be mold) in the vent in the kitchen. Living room tv did not have Netflix, etc.. Chairs on the balcony were worn down from the sun it appeared.Everything else was great and the resort itself was great. We enjoyed our stay and the process was very easy. The location was really good too as we were able to access the pools and beach with ease and get around town no problem. The host was very good at communication and made the check-in/checkout process very smooth.
