"This has been our family’s third time visiting this resort. The staff are always extremely friendly and always very helpful. The villa we had this time had tiny ants in the kitchen and it seemed like we had maintenance out almost every day spraying deterrent, but nothing seemed to help… That was the only downside of our stay."
