Sadly the single beds were not made up so we did not have enough beds or pillow cases. Although we were six adults only 2 of these were a couple. Grandma sleeping with a 21 yr old grandson was not a goer. Otherwise our stay was lovely. We did note that the water level in the spa was well below the recommended level. We have the same pool at home. We did fill it up but Bach manager needs to note these things. Also sand in the bottom too. Lovely and clean. ##### Glenn S.
