"Very nice place to stay! Very clean and close to the shops. Just what we wanted. Just a few bumps though. I had called months before our check in to see if both condos were together and they said yes, get there to check in and we are on different floors, didn't like that. Was told "sorry". Last two days didn't have hot water, was told the water heaters were a little away from out condos, to let the water run for a bit.... Never did get hot at all. Otherwise I would stay again if need be!!"

Amazing views from the expansive deck with fireplaces, incredible design and planning went into the structure - a credit to the owner & local builders. Comfy beds and very welcoming staff. Breakfast is enough of a reason to return!"
