Misleading and Outdated. Pool Was Lovely Though!
Pros:

Convenient location and beautiful landscaping. The pool and hammocks were the highlight. Dog friendly is a huge plus!

Cons:

Having previously enjoyed a great stay here, we gladly chose to book again, though this visit highlighted a few key operational areas that could be improved.

The check-in staff deserves some credit for their customer service. The automated check-in text line went unanswered for 20 minutes, and a subsequent technical issue with the credit card reader added another 25 minutes to our wait. Despite this 45-minute delay, the employee on duty was incredibly polite and apologetic, which significantly helped ease our frustration.

However, there is a noticeable gap between the room advertising and reality. We stayed in the "Villa with a Garden View" room based on the modern, upgraded photos featured on Booking.com, but the actual room was quite outdated and requires refreshing. Additionally, the patio and outdoor furniture needed a deep clean before they could be usable.

We will likely return due to the hotel's strong affordability, but updating the online gallery would go a long way in managing guest expectations, especially when advertising as Mid Century Modern decor.

Just don't get the small room.
Pros:

Pool is nice! Bed is comfortable. Patios are useful.

Cons:

My room was very tiny. It was a small corner room with a tiny patio with no grass. You have to walk around the bed to get to the restroom. I thought I purchased something bigger, nor did I know they had tiny rooms. The staff is actually not on site. You have to text someone who only answers 30% of the time. The dog fee was over $50 just for two nights. The dog is not allowed anywhere other than your room. There is no dog park on site. Not sure what is pet friendly about this location.

Great little quiet resort
Pros:

Great quiet little place.

Cons:

Could use a little human interaction with staff. Everything is through text, and sometimes I didn’t get any response.
