"Great location just a 5 minute walk to town. The room we had was quite large with lots of room in front of the bed to move around. Having the pool was a big bonus and the 4 outdoor kitchens (plus the two indoor) gave everyone room to spread out. Bianca at check-in did a great job showing us around the property and giving us a quick tour of the town on a huge map just outside the lobby office, nice touch! "
