We stayed in the cabin it was super cute, the kitchen had everything you need to prepare meals all you need is the spices and ingredients..short walk to the market and other shops, the only thing that i could say that was a negative was the parking for the cabins uphill and very close to there. They had an awsome kids recreation room and pool was super COLD lol I couldn't handle it. Other than that I plan on staying here every single year!"
