8.8/10 Excellent! (1,003 reviews)

For the price I would have liked to have my bed made and fresh towels replaced every day. Breakfast was really good but ditch those fake eggs. Over all it was great. Would stay there again.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,002 reviews)

We had an amazing stay at Cliffhouse and were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful it is. The only minor issues we encountered were that the pullout couch was quite uncomfortable for our kids, and it was frustrating that children aren’t allowed in the main pool—everyone with kids ends up crowded around a small pool off to the side. Aside from that, everything else was fantastic!
