I had a pretty mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was great and allowed easy access to activities, the room itself was quite musty and not very comfortable due to the spiders I found. The service was okay, with friendly staff, but facing issues with our accommodation was disappointing. On the plus side, we didn’t need a golf cart to get around the area, which was convenient.
