Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This property is advertised as a luxury facility however the rugs were dirty, drainpipe draining on walkway right outside our door, ice maker drip pan filled with dirty milky water for days, charged $35 a day for parking after paying $1100 for a 3 day stay, $40 pp for breakfast buffet. I should have stayed at Holiday Inn for less which included breakfast. Only good thing was the view & location.

The location is very pretty. The hotel itself is dated, especially the rooms & bathrooms. It was nice to have 2 heated pools & hot tubs. The kids enjoyed it a lot. The food at the restaurant was average. Parking is expensive for $35 a night. Overall, an ok stay.
