The pool area is lush. Restaurants & it's staff were good. Reception was nice. I was poolside for a few hrs, got up to use the facilities several times, & on my last visit, the pool attendant attempted to take my airpods that were on the table next to my chair. She did not try & clean up the lunch tray I had, water bottles, glassware, my book or clothing, as I watched for several moments. I'm certain they would have disappeared if I had not returned at the right time.

Property overall was excellent my only observation was adjusting the temperature of the ac in the room. One min it was cool the other warm. May not be the fault of the hotel's I probably simply didnt know how to set the temperature. AC gauge could be more user friendly
