"This Hotel is Absolutely Amazing. We stay at many hotels every year and this one spoiled us. The room was so spacious, the beds were very very comfortable. The pool was opened till midnight and the water was warm. Breakfast was delicious, great coffee. Jason at the front desk was very curious and kind. We will be back this winter for a family getaway to just stay here."
