We were met with such kindness and helpfulness by the staff. We were allowed to look at the property, including Beach, before making a choice to stay. The rooms are absolutely beautiful and we love the comfortable big beds and the high ceilings! Beautifully rustic, historic feeling, and the pool is gorgeous as well! Bueno !!!
