Absolutely breath taking views- it is a ways out of town so golf cart is a must have. Do not let the distance stop you from exploring and staying this side of your island. The town is busy and noisy. It is quiet, friendly staff, lots of things to do.

Sure! Here's a polished and improved version of your message that maintains your original sentiment while improving clarity and flow: --- The staff here truly make the stay exceptional. The facilities are excellent, and while it was unfortunate that our visit coincided with sargassum season, I can only imagine how amazing it must be with a clear beachfront.

The property itself and the staff were amazing. Beautiful. It's too far north for a golf cart. The mosquitoes were treacherous. I used lemon and eucalyptus Cutter and one a day vitamin with energy and it helped alot. But my daughter and our neighbor were tormented by mosquitoes. There's standing water everywhere. The people were super friendly. Bring LOTS of 1s and 5s for tips.
