The back parking lot floods very easily with High tides. The staff did not inform me not park in those areas, however, there were signs posted. It was beautiful weather, so I did not think the water would rise that much. Now my sister did however get informed and the staff stated the importance and hand to not parkthat thback parking lotland my rental car got flooded, but no damage.

Overall I really enjoyed staying here. Really nice place. I would definitely stay here again. The only reason I gave 4 stars was because they had issues with their water supply and had no running water for a day. The communication about this could have been better regarding the issue.
