Staff was friendly and attentive. They offered to help with luggage upon arrival and also informed us of breakfast for the next morning. Menu's to local restaurants were also provided (Steak house & Italian). The room was spotless; the star was the hot tub which was magical. Definitely recommend and will be back soon.

The room was nice but not what I expected it was not the same room as shown in the website the wine glasses were dirty. The base of the shower had mold on it. The jacuzzi tub needs to be replaced. The edges in the tub have a reddish brown discoloration The man at the front desk was very nice I believe his name was Troy. Your maid on duty the morning we left was very rude. Very unfriendly
