At your arrival, you have to pay the full stay, or to sign a blank Credit Card payment with no amount (not a guarantee). - Rooms: very spacious and clean. Except a broken shower that has flooded all the bathroom and the kitchen. -... more

We stayed here for 2 weeks and found it to be very nice, clean and comfortable. Our room, overlooking golf course, was very spacious and very clean, we were suprised by how big it was, the girls loved it. The hotel staff were very friendly, but a little "laid back". We often used the courtesy bus from the hotel into... more
