The only complaint we have is of the pools cleanliness, it had a lot of dead bees inside and when we say a lot we mean A LOT. It also had what looked like dead mosquitoes and tree residue.

This had one of the most relaxing getaways we have ever had. The bungalow is so private and very spacious. Sitting on the patio in the middle of the vineyard is amazing. We couldn't have stayed at a better resort to celebrate our 37th Anniversary.

Place is beautiful and cottage was very comfortable. Only complaint is there is not a registration desk that is open to check in or out. We had to find a worker and they got a hold of security to get our keys. Also there was no instructions on how to check out. We will stay again but recommend better communication

My favorite place to stay. Great to relax and rest in between busy schedule. One improvement could be having a shade available for the window above the vanity. The light shines through pretty early in the morning.

The hotel is really nice, centrally located with lots of services right down the street. The breakfast is ok, it wasn't the best, but there is food if you are hungry! The only reason I didn't give the best rating for service was because the door on the side of the hotel really didn't work right and it jammed my finger pretty bad. When I told the girl at the front desk she said "yeah, it happens". That was a bummer of a response. Not, wow, sorry, can I get you ice? Or, I will have someone...
