I found the facilities excellent and the location quite convenient! The hot pools provided a relaxing experience. They were very well maintained. The cabin was nice and neat. It had ample space for our short stay.
The small sink in the room made it difficult to fill the kettle! though it was manageable.

The Villa had such space and room sizes. My children could spread out, and I could actually relax. The villa has great views and all the facilities met my needs. The kids playground saw happy children, and the bounce pad brought much joy.
The walk to the pools felt long. The hill was steep. My back did hurt. I wish I could drive there, with travel weary bones.
