We mentioned about the flies, they moved us rooms and we didn’t have another problem. Only downside was the tv wasn’t a smart tv unlike the other room, so we couldn’t watch anything.

5/5 - Excellent

Beautiful area, lovely beaches, easy to bike and walk around in. They have trails set up for biking/walking and using golf carts to keep you off the main road. Lots of dining and shopping options. Will definitely go back again.
