Overall the stay was good! The pool area and playground was great for my kids.
Pros:

The property was nice and quiet.

Cons:

The room was clean and neat. The only issue was the high humidity inside the room. Towels and wet clothes weren’t drying and the tile felt humid.

Will be back again
Pros:

Perfect stay , the cottage we got was great, it had a breeze door between them and my in-laws got to stay next to us. Rooms were big and we loved that it had a full kitchen for whenever we didn’t want to go out and eat we just cooked there. Kid friendly with a play scape, hot tub for adults and a pool.. this location will be our go to for future spring break trips

Shitty place I'm dropping Booking from my list because I can there is other choices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The keys never work!! I spoke to the owner and then a staff member who assured me that it would get fixed, NEVER happen I would leave the door unlocked so we could get back in the room. The bed had a large dent/hole not good!! the bathtub and the bathroom floor were very slippery.
Booking needs to read all the negative ratings about this place and drop them from their list of places to stay!!! I put some of the blame on Booking because they need to stay on top of this kind of crap!!!
