EXCELLENT PROPERTY!

Everything was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Check-in was a breeze! The breathtaking view of the water from the lobby just takes your breath away. The rooms were HUGE and SPACIOUS! I give this property at 10/10! Only thing I hate was no jacuzzi, but the fire pit overlooking the water was amazing!
