I booked a 1 bedroom court view apartment for a 2 night weekend stay for my birthday. I was able to get an early check in on the Friday. The rooms were spacious, quiet and clean. I liked that they had all the cleaning products for the washing machine, dishwasher etc in the apartments too and an oven. The pool and spa were lovely. It was great for my little get away. I’ll definitely be back.
