Airport shuttle was not helpful. Wouldn't help with my luggage. Did not ask what airline I needed to be dropped off at. Needed wheelchair assistance so had to be dropped off at a designated gate, but he refused. Had to struggle with 2 suitcases across the airport to United Airlines. Had severe back pains because of the excessive walking.

8/10 Very Good! (45 reviews)

Overall very nice. The scenery is beautiful and lots of outdoor activities. There are a lot of birds that try to come on the porch. They do their best to keep the birds away. they have spikes at the top to keep them from landing. But the porch and porch furniture had bird poop all over it, so we did not sit out on the porch like we would have wanted to do. They could have at least cleaned the furniture and the porch floor between guests. Just an FYI. The villas are not toddler friendly. The front door opens very easily and there is no option to deadbolt it from the inside. My 1 and a half year old could easily push open the door and run out. And she is not able to open regular doors. This is the only door she has ever been able to open. Also the villas have stairs inside and the bedrooms are upstairs. Just an FYI for those traveling with young kids. Would recommend bringing a baby gate. Would also have liked better breakfast options. There is only a little gift shop market open with only 1 worker. They make breakfast sandwiches. But It took us an hour to get breakfast to go. Was not the workers fault she was working very hard.
