The place was overall great quality and as advertised. We had access to good shower/toilet bathrooms next door. The only problems were the stove top only worked at full temp so we had to use the communal kitchen, and the tree scraping on the side of the building (cabin 7) kept us awake all 3 nights - the storm was on night 3 so we left incredibly tired. The boys loved the pool and doing manu's with the local lads.

Really unimpressed with this property. In need of a deep clean and renovation. Also disappointed in the staff’s interaction with us upon check-in. We had a miscommunication in reserving their private pool, and despite it still being available, would not allow us to reserve it without paying the fee again (thus double paying). Just not the kind of hospitality we were expecting.
