One of the beds did not appear clean. I slept in a blanket I had in my car. The fridge/ freezer was wobbly, and the microwave had, maybe pizza, splattered around inside. Very disappointing. The building itself was very nice looking and staff were friendly. Very nice looking amenities in the building. Overall building and staff was good but our room was gross!

Chose this place because of proximity to dragon boat races. On-site restaurant was lacking. They were out of noodles to make pasta dish on menu, and cook was over an hour late Saturday morning so unable to get breakfast.

On the water, marina was right behind the hotel, picturesque. They really do put a effort forward to keep up with modern day asthetics and efforts to merge nature and functionality. From the water drainage to the wetland catch basins, nature walking paths, beaches, etc. fun and adventurous place to stay.

The property is located in a beautiful location. However, the rooms were filthy. The food at the restaurant was cold and tasted like it was reheated. My mother left a tip, and when she checked her checking account, they had charged $7 mote than what she left them.
