8/10 Good
"For the most part our stay was very nice we loved the villas over looking the pond. The rooms were nice and spacious. For the most part the rooms were pretty clean. We had some ants in kitchen and one of toilets looked like it didn't get cleaned also the beds are rock hard but overall very nice. We did like the pick up and drop off service to pools everyone was very nice driving the golf carts. The restaurant on property was not good at all very basic food and not a lot of flavor. We loved the pools very clean and beautiful Scenery. Side note do not check in at the check in time at 4pm to like maybe 7pm the lines were crazy I waited in line just to check in for hour. It was hot in the lobby and everyone looked very unhappy not a good start for a vacation. Also good luck trying to Get a hold of someone at front desk they don't answer. So I did give a four star because overall our time here was very enjoyable but maybe this review can help them change and few things for the future. I would love to come back and a few of these things could improve."
