"Room was clean and spacious with lots of drawers for storage. Small refrigerator, no microwave. Lots of extra towels, and an extra pillow. Ironing board and iron, nice spa quality toiletries. Parking close to room but shocked at $50/night charge for parking. Gardens and ponds everywhere, beautiful. Lots of squirrels, birds. Gazebos to hang out in. Several swimming pools, but no outside beverages aloud inside. At night, lots of fire pits available. I don’t recommend premium rooms by the bay if you plan on swimming. Sign said bacteria in water swimming not recommended but view is nice, with several fire pits (bring your own wood)."
