Pros: From start to finish, this was an amazing experience. We traveled down from Seattle as a family. (Husband, 11-year old daughter, 10-year old niece, and myself!) instantly greeted with a warm welcome, clean environment, and fresh baked cookies! Our room was a single level, close to the pool, and felt like home. Parking was a breeze, the restaurant had ample portions for the kids menu (they could have easily shared the chicken!) and the property was well kept.

Pros: The property was amazing, was super quiet and very comfortable. Spent time with my fiancé during that time and was such a nice get away. The food was great, the hotel room was incredible. That bed was comfortable and soft. The bathroom was huge! A walk in shower and very nice water pressure. The room was so big, it did not feel like we were at the hotel. The swimming pool was very roomy, had nice chairs to lay out and sun bathe. Had accessible towels if you forget yours.

Cons: The only thing I wish it had, was a top cover for the cabanas at the poolside. Yet, it allowed me to put my laptop away... so gift and a curse!

The swimming pool was very roomy, had nice chairs to lay out and sun bathe. Had accessible towels if you forget yours.
Cons: The pool had flowers in it, just because there was trees all around. I only saw the pool guy once out of the three days cleaning it. The hotel is a bit of a maze, I wish they had more directions and signs. It is a walk to your room, lots of stairs. If you’re on the second or third floor.

6.7 Good
Pros: The pool and hot tub were nice! The room was very clean and hotel staff always kept up on cleanliness. They were also very friendly.
Cons: We thought that laundry and breakfast were included but that wasn't the case. The gym was very small. a few treadmills and some weights.No laundry for guests. Breakfast was $19 a day. We were expecting it to be free. And the restaurant charges 22 percent gratuity plus $3.50 and then tax. on top of the already expensive meal. Also ridiculous that we had to pay for parking and a $150 holding fee. Won't be staying here again. not a good bang for your buck.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: The rooms were very nice. Beds were comfortable. Staff was very friendly, quick and helpful. Loved the balcony.
Cons: Need to let guests know ahead of time they are on the second floor, lots of steps. And advertised tennis courts and golf, there is none. Trees shedding into the pool which I realize that is not in your control.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: I like that it was private and had a home feeling
Cons: The pool was a little dirty with the flowers from the tree and some bees in it
8.0 Excellent
Pros: The front clerk was extremely helpful and welcoming. As we were checking out, he offered us water for the road trip home and individual cookies to each of us. We had been to a funeral and he wanted to make us smile. Sweet guy!
Cons: Probably the first level entrance to our rooms.. no flowers or foliage on the first level, just empty flower beds. Not very inviting. The bathroom floor was sticky when I walked on it.
3.8 Mediocre
Pros: Staff was friendly
Cons: Room was not cleaned. Bathroom sink broken. Lightbulbs in room lights burned out. Very clearly owned by a hotel group that is more focused on making money and does not have the proper consideration of what a good stay is for a guest. Did not notify of parking charges.
