"AH-MAZING! This property was a dream come true. They helped me host my dream wedding and everyone who attended was stunned by the beauty of the space. "

"The ambience at this place is amazing. It doesn't feel like a hotel; you feel like you've snagged a room on a rich person's hacienda. I didn't give it full stars because the signage and communication were lacking. You have to call (by phone) to get someone to come and check you in. There is no check-in desk, which adds to the ambience, but if you don't know about that in advance, you'll be like me--circling the place on foot and by car, to find someone to check you in. Once inside, it's a maze of corridors with beautiful, museum-like rooms roped off. These also add to the ambience. But trying to remember where that office was, for a person (like me) with no sense of direction, was a nightmare. When we wanted to check out, I did find the office (after going up and down several hallways several times), but the door was locked. It was about 9:00 a.m. I then went outside, looking for someone. Then, I finally realized, I could call the same number I had called to check in. Did that, and a person came immediately. Advance information would have saved me a lot of stress."

"This home was fantastic, everything the listing said it would be. The first thing I noticed when I walked in the door was how clean it smelled and how neat everything was. We were a group of 11 including 5 children age 1 1/2 to 16. There was plenty to do on the property for everyone the kids especially loved the arcade, pool table and pool/ hot tub. The beds were super comfortable and there were plenty of towels both for showering and the pool. Mo was always quick to respond to any issues that arose. We would definitely stay in this home again."

"I hate to say it, and I’ll be the first to admit my standards for this kind of thing are lower than most, but this room was so bad that I checked out and got another room somewhere else 10 minutes after seeing it. The room wasn’t advertised as having a hostel-style shared bathroom and entry space, but I figured it was fine as long as the bathroom door locked - but it didn’t, and that’s just hugely gross and unsafe. The individual bedroom door wouldn’t reliably lock about 70% of the time either, getting stuck constantly. The smoke detectors were all ripped out, none of the outlets worked, the lights flickered, the surfaces were dirty, the bed was gross, and the bedroom itself was barely big enough to spread both your arms out in without hitting either wall. The low price and the comically Mr. Krabs-ian “NO REFUNDS” signage posted repeatedly should have tipped me off, but it’s just ridiculous they would leave even a budget room in this state and expect someone not to balk. I was prepared for a little discomfort so I could save money, but the safety issues that just kept mounting the more I looked were dealbreaking. I lost money in my attempt to save money; the clerk took pity on me and gave my $40 damage deposit back, which I do really appreciate, but their boss wouldn’t let them give me the rest, which is just silly as I was “checked in” for a total of 15 minutes (the clerk hadn’t even finished putting my info in the system by the time I called it quits). Avoid this place!"

"Amazing home! Everything was clean and the home was exactly how it is listed on here. Host is very helpful and responsive!"

"Absolutely beautiful property, with stunning views. The house was clean & very well stocked. Beds were comfortable and the tv had all the options you would want. Great location to everything. Would definitely recommend!"

"Great stay! Clean and plenty of amenities."

"Our stay was great! So much room and so many activities available on the property. We would stay here again."

"Nice clean roomy place. The backyard pool area is stunning. We had reserved this place in the hope of swimming in the pool with grandkids but water was too cold to swim in. Even though there had been a recent heat wave it was cool when we were there and I guess the solar pool heating system does not hold the heat. Be sure to check with host on water temp if you are depending on using the pool. Decor and TVs were dated. Host was very nice. "
