This property was very nice. However the staff was not helpful. We had no wash cloths or dry towels. The refrigerator did not work and we had no iron. The amount of money we spent was not worth it. They clame we had access to the beach and other restaurants that was a live. I give this property a 7 out of 10.

Friendly staff but not always efficient. I nearly got into a fight with a driver which was honking constantly in front driveway asking for the other cars to move and staff just stood there while I was trying to find my uber driver. The concierge sold me a cruise dinner which was not anything remotely what we experienced.
