My only real complaint would be that the pillows had no support at all which made it very difficult to sleep and get comfortable. There were a lack of outlets for phone chargers near the bed and the TV was hidden behind the curtains so we thought there was no TV until we found it in the morning. We both had a very hard time sleeping due to the bed being uncomfortable so we sadly ended up leaving our stay around 3am to go home so we could get better sleep. Otherwise the Hotel is beautiful and very accessible and very cool treehouse vibe. Staff was very friendly.

It started out so well! Great staff, good pool, tasty food. Then on our last night, my boyfriend and I came back from the bar and decided to have some drinks on the balcony. We were out there chatting away when all of a sudden, a strobe light starts flashing in the room. Stunned, we ran inside and heard a knock at the door. It was cops. Apparently, our conversation had been too loud for some of our neighbors. Instead of calling the phone in our room and asking us to quiet down, THE HOTEL CALLED THE COPS ON US. It was utterly baffling. And a gross overreaction. Who calls the cops to report a conversation?²
