Hi Sandra.Thank you for your Review and letting us know of some issues you had.The Super King you slept on is a Medium so could be your preference of bed to be soft. Wish there was a button we could press to change the firmness.WIFI should have been just fine but have reset the Devices just in case. The TV Remote has been found and our apologies it wasn't available. Guests must have been turning it on and off Manually. It would be great should you have issues just to give the office a call so these can be rectified at the time to give you a better experience. Kind Regards

Thank you for your review and pleased your parents enjoyed the location for there night stay. We do apologise if we came across blunt but were unable to allow a late check out due to the high season. The ranch slider door handle that came away had only recently been replaced by specialists and has now been rectified. Kind Regards

The rooms were very spacious and well equipped. Very tidy grounds, lovely pool etc. Perfect location near The Cove Restaurant where we had a family event and right next to the beach.
