The breakfast included freshly made pancakes and eggs. Fresh fruit was also available. The staff were helpful. Bee, Suzy, Yaya, Abegai, and Dear assisted us. They provided a free cooking class because our friends received a room upgrade.

The room doors did not fit well. Gaps around the doors allowed mosquitoes inside. I got bitten during the night. The pool area had loose decking boards and protruding screws.
