this hotel is awesome! the rooms are very spacious and open, with great views! we came as a big group and having a small kitchen was really helpful. The surrounding area of the rooms is also gorgeous. If you decide to stay in the hotel half the day, you will enjoy it! we also made bonfires every night and had a blast. The restaurant available is also very convenient with nice views.
