Would stay again but bring my own linens. Older building but quaint. Some xtra care will be enough
Pros:

Big open family room at a good price. Nice long kitchen counter. Freeze dried coffee and tea. Fridge and freezer and microwave.

Cons:

Sticky floors, bring your slippers...not enought bed sheets and office closed in the mid evening so I couldn'tget more. Dirty sofa and older stained fold out sofa bed. Only 1 flat sheet. No top sheet. Had to wrap in blanket to keep off of the stained mattress... Not enough pillows. We had to use older sofa throw pillows. Unsure of how many people had used them or how clean they might be.. and no pillow cases for them. Photos do not accurately reflect the conditions of the rooms. Incense smell filters through the air-conditioning system. But not unpleasant or strong. TV reception was sketchy but viewable... Water didn't get very hot. But adequate.

Better cleaning and more maintenance would make this property worthy of return.
Pros:

The cabins were a good size, easy to check in.

Cons:

One shower in the cabin didn’t work at all. The cabin didn’t feel clean. There was food crumbs in the fridge and on the table. The pool was dirty and unkept.

Disappointed
Pros:

The staff were helpful when we asked for help. Bathroom wasn't terrible. Main bed was comfortable.

Cons:

We weren't booked into the right room as per booking and even then the second room was not as per photos. Bunk bed instead of single beds as per photo on booking.com which was very creaky. No blankets available only sheets. Dead roaches in the kitchen. Laundry also hard to use.

Beds comfortable with clean linen and villas have all you need to be self-sufficient.
Pros:

Facilities in the villas were great and the location worked for us as were there for a quick trip to visit family.

Cons:

The beds in the two bedrooms of the villa were comfortable but the sofa bed bottom end kept tilting up. My adult daughter ended up sleeping with her feet at the couch end of the sofa bed to stay safe. It probably needs replacing. Ceiling fans need cleaning.
