The property is beautiful. However do not pay with a debit card they held over 1600 when my total bill was around 900 dollars from me leaving me with limited funds for the trip. I asked what these charges were I got different answers fron different staff. I am not blaming the staff just wish they would have been more clear on what was being taken out and why.
