"YHIS IS A 2 BEDROOM PLACE THAT SAYS IT SLEEPS 7. It only had 2 rolls of toilet paper, ants were crawling on the wall and cockroaches ended up in our sons bed. One room had stained and dirty sheets. Of the 4 bicycles that were supplied, 2 were broken, no internet password was provided at the property and it took 15 minutes over the phone to obtain from the management. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS OR STAY THERE AGAIN."

"Living room furniture should be replaced. It’s worn and not comfortable to use. The same is recommended for master bedroom mattresses. Mattresses have seen their best years. Cheap pillows. “Dollar Store” quality patio chairs. They’re made of thin and cheap plastic. Not safe to sit in. Two of the four chairs were broken. Master toilet flushing was nearly non-functional. "

"Had a very relaxing and rejuvenating stay, the weather was on and off so we had stayed in the room and it was very comfy, comes with kitchen and kitchenware and all other bells and whistles. Bed was super comfy as well. Beach access is available via the Beach club and the pool is also amazing! Perfect stay for couples and families! Worth the every dollar!
