Our stay had some enjoyable moments, mostly due to the exceptional service from the staff and a beautiful beachfront view from our cottage. However, the property is in dire need of updates, and the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. The service, especially at the restaurant, was friendly, but slow, impacting our overall experience. Given the price tag, we expected better maintenance and attention to detail.
