We visited a couple years ago and this place had a hot tub and a swimming pool. It’s sad to see them gone. Also this is a contactless property so if you need extra stuff good luck.

Great location and very clean/comfortable. None of the outlets in the room would hold a plug in though (too loose) which was extremely frustrating.
