Very good and nice and comfortable seating and bed! Would book it again. My host Sheila went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of!

We had a wonderful stay at this condo! The views were absolutely perfect — overlooking both the pool and the river, which made mornings and evenings especially relaxing. The condo itself was spotless and very well maintained. One thing that really stood out was how abundantly stocked the kitchen was. It had everything we needed and more, including plenty of pots, cookware, and paper products, which made our stay so much easier and more comfortable. The entire space felt clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully prepared for guests. We truly appreciated the attention to detail and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with beautiful views!

We loved our time in this home. Sheila, was very invested in making sure things ran smoothly for us. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the netted balcony that overlooks the river. We had all the space & supplies we needed for our family of 5 and would definitely come back.
