This was an exceptional property and experience. We were there overnight on our road trip and wish we could have stayed another night or more. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean and lovely. The balcony was amazing and the pool area was relaxing. If you are looking for accommodations in this area you should certainly consider staying here.
