Rooms were neat and tidy and beds were all made ready to go. Shower stuff all included Lots of kitchen appliances for cooking, cheese grater and a peeler.

Emma from Australia (March 9, 2025)
Excellent value for money. The splash park & pool was the highlight for us.
What could be improved: We stayed in one of the river view villas. One of the older ones. The tiles were lifting in the bathroom & very dated. However, the beds were super comfy and the balcony was spectacular!
