“Perfect relaxing getaway”

by Traveladdict9952

It was a wonderful week! The GO’s especially were a highlight of the trip. They made us feel welcome from the very beginning to the fond farewell. A special shout out to Ben. He was non stop involved and really seemed to be going the extra mile every day. Thanks also to Sophia who was the most warm, friendly and professional hostess with the mostest!! Food was amazingly great, all dining staff so gracious also and always smiling.
We loved the activities and were very lucky to see the birthing of the turtles.
Its a wrap for this year but we will be back and will spread the word...
