"The location it was not where it supposed to be. I realy needed to stay in Nelas. In your site, the place is in Nelas. Thats the reason I booked at the first place. And even at the Google Maps it shows the place as it it in Nelas. But the fact is that it is not in the village I wanted. So I could not stay at the place. I had to move to another place with extra charge. I hope I could refund me because the information I had for the booking is not correct. Kind regards"

"The resort is exactly as described, clean, bright and comfortable. My husband golfed one day and I walked to the beach (approximately 40 minutes each way) You could swim in the lagoon but the ocean side was wild and looked dangerous but it is a spectacular beach. The course was excellent condition, bunkers nice and greens were fast. A fairly challenging layout. It’s quite the drive to get to the resort but don’t worry, you’ll get there 😆 Overall a great experience!"
