good menu saturday bonus corner bedroom blocked netflix
the poolside drinks menu was good. the saxophonist on saturday afternoon was a welcome bonus.
The wifi was not working properly because we had a corner bedroom. That was frustrating. the tv was supposedly 'smart' yet netflix was blocked. I could not use any apps. It felt misleading.
