Great villa for two couples
Property was beautiful inside, outdoor patio was awesome we spent most of our outdoor time there if we weren’t at the pool or beaches. Comfortable beds! Always a plus when away from home. Only negative would be the location was near the grounds workers office/gathering spot in the morning. Loud talking and trash pick up from hotel near by.
