We had the whole place to ourselves which was amazing. The kitchen is crazy good. The view amazing. WiFi good too. We loved everything, but the jacuzzi was broken and they did not notify us before coming. They compensated with lowering the price though. The kayaks were not useable so there is not much to do. They had inflatable ones but they were more like boats and impossible to control with a little bit of wind. Easy to get to the place and it’s very relaxing.
