FANTASTIC stay!

amazing servicespacious roomlovely spamissing fridge
I loved the spa. It is one of the best in the area. There IS a GORGEOUS outdoor area, and I always found enough loungers. My meal at the rib house was AMAZING with perfect service. The room was modern and spacious.
I paid for the spa from check-in to check-out. The room lacked a fridge or minibar, which I EXPECTED at the price I paid. The bottled water was warm to drink.
