This property was kept spotless! The people working on property were absolutely amazing! They were kind, helpful, and genuine. We ate on property most meals and enjoyed all of them immensely. The resort is small and quaint and felt very much like a large family with a wonderful beach to walk on adjacent to the property and a large pool with swim up bar to cool down in. Can’t wait to go back!
