Restaurant: good food, loved the goat cheese fritters, friendly staff.

Accommodations: we made the mistake of staying in the Woodlands cottage which was old, covered in cobwebs, unclean, dust bunnies and dirt all over floors with very dated furniture and bathroom. The inn appeared nicer and cleaner.

Spa: adjacent to pool. Very bad idea. It's not relaxing to hear the music from the pool or children screaming while having a massage.

Spa service: not pleasant to have a person who is obviously sick providing a service; poor thing coughed throughout entire massage and even left the room at one point. No additional time was added to appointment. Spa manager very accommodating and provided a refund yet assured me the staff member wasn't contagious. I now have an upper respiratory infection and have lost time at work.

This was not the "resort" experience we expected or are accustomed to whatsoever.
