Relaxing desert oasis
Pros:

We loved everything about this property. It was so quaint and charming and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The staff is so attentive and hospitable making sure you enjoy your stay to the fullest. Rooms are clean and well appointed, morning breakfast and afternoon popcorn is a nice touch, and the outdoor pool area is also stocked with everything you need from floats, towels, sunscreen and cold water bottles. We also enjoyed all the hummingbirds on this beautiful property. We look forward to returning.

Pros:

The lady upon arrival was very sweet! I forgot her name but she was very kind. 24 hour pool.

Cons:

It was too far from down town. Perfect for older people. Housekeeping was washing the floor at 7am. I was woken up really fast since the rooms are right in front of it!

Un séjour paradisiaque
Pros:

La propreté des chambres (et notamment le fait qu'il n'y ait pas de moquette au sol ce qui est rare aux US), la taille des chambres ainsi que les équipements disponibles, l'espace extérieur qui ressemble à un coin de paradis (et qui est également très bien équipé), et bien sûr la gentillesse et le sens du service de la part des membres de l'équipe !

Cons:

Le fait qu'il n'y ait que des stores en guise de volets mais ce n' est qu'un détail 🙂
