Pros:

Loved the location, loved the pool, loved the bed, loved the food

Cons:

It felt like we were just a number, not a valid guest. We advise it was our anniversary, we didn't even get a happy anniversary, or even a cheap bottle of wine or even a note saying happy anniversary on it like you do everywhere else,we did request if you can do a little something on the time of the booking so was a little disappointing.
