Beautiful house, fantastic kitchen, and amenities. Everyone loved the house. The staff was accommodating and pleasant. We had an issue with the elevator, and they promptly addressed the problem. Already rebooked for next year!

Plenty of space

The house was nice. The photos made the house look nicer. The outdoor area by the pool wasn’t clean. My bathroom smelled like urine. The furniture in the common areas was dirty and worn. The messages throughout the house were a great touch. We enjoyed them.
