What reviewers say

Visitors frequently praise the wonderful staff, beautiful location, and clean accommodations with great views. However, some guests found the communication process to be heavily reliant on text messaging and the suitability for more than one couple to be lacking.

Everything we needed was in the accommodation, plus welcome snacks and high end toiletries. A lot of back and forth text messaging required, including photo ID, which replaced any personal contact. But the arrival and departure process was smooth, as long as you are familiar with keypad locks!
