The swimming pool was good, and the Netflix tv worked well. It was too hot in the room and there was no air-conditioning. The windows had to be pushed to open and close. We were woken at 6 am one morning by a rat in the walls or ceiling. Room was spacious and generally okay, but over-priced for what it was.

The window in our room,needs repairing.Went to open it & it dropped down,so needs attention.3am trying to close it without being quiet,was impossible.. The outdoor pool was closed,but The Spa Pool was Fantastic.. In our other unit,someone turned the fridge off,while we were out fishing,so we returned to warm bottles of beer. Apart from that we look forward to our next stay with them.
