very Nice Place to stay
Our suite was extremely comfortable and well equipped except for the TV. They do not provide too many channels to watch or offer the ability to use your own Netflix. The walls are paper thin. We could hear the people across the hall from us as if they were in the hall right outside our door. The Reception area leaves a lot to be desired. Just a emply room when you walk in the front door with some stuff being stored in the corners. You check in thru the Pro shop. Very low class for a place that seems to be trying to promote 5* resort.

Front desk person said I did not book through her instead by another third party so she could not give me a receipt, terrible , I do NOT have a computer or no printer , even give me a piece of paper ! And in the restaurant the staff was more interested in their texting on phone rather then helping us with a table !
