Only negatives to our stay, it was not made clear that we had to leave a credit card for deposit, as neither me or my partner had one we had to leave $200 each which we had to take from our spending money leaving us short for our holiday, we did get this back at checkout but spending $200 on our last day proved difficult when we only had a couple of hours before our flight.
