Nice location! Plenty of room so you don't feel like you are in a hotel room. Nice view from the balcony.

Not knowing the swimming pool was closed when we booked. Accommodations are a little dated but clean and spacious!

Enjoyable.
Pros:

Loved the pool & hot tub. We loved the room as well. Very comfortable and big and had everything we needed. Met our expectations. The area around the resort was also great. Felt secluded and nature like. Definitely would like to come back with our kids in the summer.

Cons:

Some of the facilities looked old and run down. The Tv was placed wierdly in the room so you couldn't fully watch it from the bed or the couch. Wasn't sure how clean the pool & hot tub were including the floors and change room.

Weekend get away
Pros:

Lovely surroundings. Very clean. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

TV is in an odd cupboard, and the doors don't open wide to extend the view of the screen. It is impossible to line the sofa up directly in front of the TV, so not very comfortable. A very odd setup

I will return, and hope the water pump noise is taken care of.
Pros:

Location was great as Vetta Spa was just a 2 minute walk away. Close to restaurants, grocery store. DSki hill just outside your back balcony.
All kitchen utensils and appliances supplied, so it was very functional as we brought our own food to cook.

Cons:

There was a clanging sound randomly through the night coming from main floor. I am assuming its a heat pump or water pump clanging. It disturbed our sleep at night. Im assuming the owner of the condos are aware of this.
