fantastic family stay!

quiet roadparking spotpalm treebarbecue evening
The hotel sits at the end of a quiet road, so only guests drive by. i found parking easily, always near our bungalow! the hotel areas are super clean, modern, and well kept. the pools, shaded by palm trees, were perfect for cooling off. i liked custom dinner nights. We enjoyed a barbecue with a fixed price, eating as much as we wanted.
The bathroom had a faint, lingering smell, maybe from a dried-up s-loop. Still, having two bathrooms was very convenient.
